What comprises a "Denver Mix"?

A "Denver Mix" traditionally refers to a combination of diced onion and diced bell peppers, often used in a variety of dishes, including omelets and scrambles. This mix is particularly popular in breakfast items and adds both flavor and color to the plate, making it a staple in many breakfast menus, including those at IHOP. The balance of sweetness from the bell peppers and the pungency of the onions creates a delicious base for many egg dishes, enhancing the overall dining experience.

The other options describe different mixtures that are not associated with the Denver Mix. For example, diced tomatoes and shredded lettuce are commonly found in salads, while chopped celery and diced carrots are typical for mirepoix or veggie platters. Shredded cheese and diced jalapeños would be toppings for Mexican dishes rather than a traditional Denver Mix.
