McCormick's (?) Western Omelette Seasoning

[cryss22]

Years ago my mom used what I think was McCormicks Western Omelette Seasoning, it came in the little envelopes, and had dried green and red peppers, onions, etc. I have looked all over for it and can't find it anywhere, if anyone has seen it lately or has a similar recipe I would love some help! LOL!

Me too!!! I remember the same thing and it was so good! My mom and I talk about it from time to time wishing they still made them.

I suspect the mix was mostly salt and a small amount of dehydrated peppers and onions.What makes an omelet Western (aka Denver) omelet is chopped and sauteed fresh bell peppers, onions, and ham, and sometimes a bit of cheese. They really can be prepped faster than re-hydrating a dried mix. I encourage you to try making one this way, it will l be so much better, faster, nutritious, and delicious! I loved them in a sandwich form when I was a kid. There are several variations on the basic omelet in the database.

I don't think they carry other brands.

Never thought of that! It should be a good seasoning even if it comes from another company, do you think? I really don't know.
