Omelette Cups with Ham & Peppers
Hopefully everyone is having a great week! :) I love repurposing leftovers. Not reheating, that’s gross. Nope, it’s fun for me to make leftovers into a completely new dish. We had some leftover ham from Easter, so I thought it would be cool to make a classic omelette with ham and cheese....
