Comment: Yep, this is a made over recipe. I had leftover ham from Easter and wanted to do something good and different. I remembered an omelette that I sometimes order for breakfast - called a Western Omelette - and decided this would be perfect. The original was called Oven Omelette and used bacon which I changed to the ham. It called for chopped tomatoes and spring onions which I eliminated and used the bell peppers and onion instead. It was simply delicious and is great for breakfast, brunch, lunch and even dinner.
