OMELETS IN A BAG

From the kitchen of SisterBollwinkel

OMELETS IN A BAG

4 eggs beaten

3 Tab. water

6 Tab. Cheese

2 slice of ham or 1 slice of bacon chopped, sausage

3 thin slices green pepper chopped

1 green onion chopped/Chopped chives

Salt and Pepper

Olives, opt.

Mushrooms sliced, opt.

Tomatoes chopped, opt

Put eggs and water in blender and mix for 30 seconds. Pour 1/3 cup of mixture into a Zip lock freezer bag with each person’s name on it using a marker. Add 2 Tab. shredded cheese, 2 tab. Chopped ham, 1 slice cooked bacon chopped, sausage, or chopped ham, a few pieces chopped green pepper, a few pieces of green onion chopped or other items you like in your omelet for each person. Let air out of bag and seal. Put in 2 to 3 inches of boiling water. Put lid on pan and cook for 1 minute, gently squeeze bags with tongs to mix egg. Continue to simmer, squeezing 2 or 3 more times, until egg is set, about 5 minutes. To test, lift bag out of water with tongs and gently squeeze; egg should not be liquid. After cooking open bag and slide omelet onto a plate. Season with salt and pepper.

We enjoy cooking omelets when we are camping. The clean-up is a breeze and you can use the hot water to for washing you dishes. We mix our eggs at home and take them in a container ready to use. The same with the other ingredients. Chopped them at home and take them in zip lock bags ready to use. If you don’t want to mix the egg before hand just break an egg in each person’s bag and then let them squish the egg in the closed Zip lock bag with the other ingredients.
