Wayback: Denver omelette

Historians speculated that the dish was originally served on bread as a sandwich, created by 19th-century cattle drivers in America and some parts of China.

At some point a breadless version was developed, and it became known as the Denver (or western) omelet.  So the name goes as far as its history.
