ZIPLOC OMELET

This works great!!! Good for when all your family is together. The best part is that no one has to wait for their special omelet.

Have guests write their name on a quart-size Ziploc freezer bag with permanent marker. Crack 2 eggs (large or extra-large) into the bag (not more than 2) shake to combine them.

Put out a variety of ingredients such as: cheeses, ham, onion, green pepper, tomato, hash browns, salsa, etc. Each guest adds prepared ingredients of choice to their bag and shakes. Make sure to get the air out of the bag and zip it up.

Place the bags into rolling, boiling water for exactly 13 minutes. You can usually cook 6-8 omelets in a large pot. For more, make another pot of boiling water. Open the bags and the omelet will roll out easily. Be prepared for everyone to be amazed. Nice to serve with fresh fruit and coffee cake; everyone gets involved in the process and a great conversation piece. 
 
Imagine having these ready the night before, and putting the bags in boiling water while your guests are arising. In 13 minutes, you get a nice omelet for a quick breakfast. I think my kids are going to like this. I used tomatoes, ham, green onions, cheddar cheese and mushrooms in the one pictured below.

The cook is ready to cut the bag, right through the Z, and dump out the omelet.

This recipe came to me from relative Cathy Day.
