Why Open Faced? Because Sometimes, Less is More (Except When It Comes to Flavor)
Forget the origami act with your omelet. Open faced lets all the deliciousness shine. Imagine a crisp, golden slice of toast acting as a stage for the star of the show: a perfectly cooked egg overflowing with diced ham, vibrantly colored peppers, and of course, a generous amount of cheese. Every bite is a flavor explosion, and you can actually enjoy it without becoming a human napkin.
The Rundown: A Recipe for Open Faced Denver Domination
Here's what you'll need to create this masterpiece:
- The Base: 2 slices of your favorite bread (sourdough, wheat, Texas toast - you do you!)
- The Eggcelent Part: 2 eggs, a splash of milk, salt, and pepper
- The Flavor Brigade: 1/4 cup diced ham, 1/4 cup diced green pepper, 1/4 cup diced red pepper, 1/4 cup diced onion
- The Cheesy Finale: Shredded cheddar cheese (or your melty cheese of choice)
- Bonus Round (Optional): Chopped chives, hot sauce, sriracha mayo - get creative!
Step 1: Toast Time
Tip: Pause, then continue with fresh focus.
Butter your bread and toast it to your desired level of golden perfection. We're aiming for a sturdy base that can hold all the fillings without getting soggy.
Step 2: Saut�ing with the Stars
Heat some butter or oil in a pan and toss in your diced veggies. Saut� them until softened and fragrant. This is where the magic happens – those beautiful peppers will release their aroma and get all caramelized and yummy.
