Mini Ham Cup Omelets

 

I have made these a few times lately for Bridal Showers and brunches with friends and they are always super popular and very cute too!

 

 HAM CUP OMELETS

 

Ingredients (Makes 12):

 

Pam Olive (or vegetable) Oil Spray

12 Ham Slices

Diced Green Peppers & Onions, sautéed in butter

8-10 Eggs

Splash of Milk

Salt and Pepper

Picante Sauce (or Chunky Salsa)

Cheddar Cheese

Green Onions Diced

Standard Muffin Tin

 

Directions:

Preheat Oven to 350 degrees

Spray muffin tin

Place ham slice in each muffin tin

Sprinkle a bit of pepper and onion mix in each ham cup

Beat eggs, milk, and salt & pepper in bowl together (like you would for scrambled eggs)

Pour egg mix into each cups

Put a dollop of Picante Sauce in each cup (this is what actually gives these flavor, they are a little bland without the Picante. Salsa and hot sauce work well too)

Top with Cheddar cheese and green onions

Bake 25-35 minutes, until eggs are cooked through

Let cool a bit before removing to a platter or plate

 

The above recipe is the best, easiest, and most poplar version I make of these. But I do make some other versions too.

There also reaches a point in my omelet ham cup prep where I just start to throw everything in the cups. Bacon, peppers & onions, Picante sauce, cheddar and mozzarella.... Just throw it all in there. It turns out good, especially with the Picante or salsa in there. I have also made some without the ham slice liner for vegetarians. These are also gluten-free (just check the individual ingredients you use.)

 

 

They were the main protein dish at these bridal shower.

(They are on the round platter, more on the platter with the grapes, and more cooling back on the stovetop.)
