A Denver scramble is a popular American breakfast dish that features eggs cooked in a scrambled style along with a combination of diced ham, bell peppers, and onions. Sometimes, cheese is added for extra flavor and creaminess. This hearty and colorful dish is inspired by the classic Denver omelet, but in the scramble version, all the ingredients are mixed together with the eggs while cooking, rather than folded inside an omelet.
