Omelet in a Bag

By ngaldi

Years ago at a camping trip family reunion my aunt taught us how to make these omelets in a bag. Sounds weird. But trust me – they are amazing. We were all so so skeptical and stood around the big pot of boiling water while our omelets cooked. To our surprise we each slid a restaurant perfect omelet onto our paper plates.

Preparation

Step 1

Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil.

While the water is boiling combine eggs, milk, and salt and pepper in a gallon sized freezer bag.
Seal bag and squish and shake the bag until eggs are "scrambled".

Add in desired Add Ins and seal bag, removing as much air as possible. Squish the bag a bit more so that all of the Add Ins are evenly distributed.

Place sealed bag into boiling water and boil for 13 minutes. You can place 4 to 5 bags into the pot at once, just make sure that the bags don't drape over the edge of the pot.

When done, open bag and slide your perfect omelet onto a plate.

Top with desired toppings and enjoy!
