Instructions for Ziploc Omelets

Set out the eggs and a variety of ingredients such as: cheeses, ham, onion, green pepper, tomato, salsa, hash browns etc....

Have each person write their name on the outside of a quart size ziploc freezer bag. Crack 2 eggs (large or jumbo) into each bag (no more than 2). Mash and shake well to combine.

Fold the top edge down so the bag will remain open. Have each person add their favorite ingredients into their own bag. Remove all air from the bag and zip it up! Shake well to combine all ingredients.

Place the bags into rolling, boiling water for EXACTLY 13 minutes. You can usually cook 6-8 omelets in a large pot.

Open the bags and the omelet will roll out easily. Prepare for everyone to be amazed!

Serve with fresh fruit and coffee cake.

These can be prepared in the bags the night before and in the morning it's 13 minutes to breakfast!

WARNING: Cooking foods in plactic CAN be harmful to your health. I commissioned Sun Coast labs to anylize a variety of foods cooked in plactics both on the stove top and microwaves. The results were traces of chemical compounds known or suspected to cause a number of health related issues including cancer. Plastics included storage containers, bags and wraps. Even some plastics rated for boiling and microwave cooking leached chemical compounds into the foods being cooked.

This idea can be adapted for feeding a large group (like scouts etc.) on a camp out. You have the stuff pre-made and frozen. You put a large kettle of water on a burner and erveryone gets a bag (or two). It can be eaten directly from the bag with a plastic spoon. Cleanup is a snap and everybody is well fed.

These were fun and easy to make. The teenage kids loved it and I was thinking 2 eggs weren't enought, but guess what - they are plenty! I plan on freezing eggs (add 1 tsp salt per cup of scrambled eggs to stabilize yolks then 4 tbsps = 1 egg) in ziploc bags for the kids to make omlettes any time they want!
