I got this in the "Bag"

Zip Top Bag Omelet

 
We all know that sounds crazy, but you can make a fantastic omelet in a zip top bag!  A few years back my Aunt was making breakfast for a big group of us and she brought us, what looked to be like a salad bar, and told us to put what ever we wanted into this bag and add two eggs to it.  We all shook our head and questioned her but we all ultimately complied.  What a great choice on our part!  This method produced the lightest and fluffiest omelet I had ever had.  A bonus for this omelet is kids will LOVE being able to pick whatever they want AND they can help squishing eggs and help with the cooking.
 
Let me walk you thru this process:
 
Things you will need:
  • Quart size freezer zip top bag/bags  (It MUST be freezer for the thickness)
  • Pot of boiling water (Choose your size based on how many you will make at a time)
  • Your favorite ingredients to put in your omelets
  • Two or three eggs per omelet/bag
How-to:
 
Bring a pot of water to a boil
 
 
Chop up your favorite veggies
 
 

Add everything to your zip top bag.  Crack two or three eggs into a bowl and add to bag and season to taste.
 
 
Seal bag squeezing out as much air as possible.  Squish eggs and filling until everything is incorporated and place into boiling water.  Flip from side to side every 4 minutes or so, boiling for a total of 12 to 15 minutes.
 
 
Remove bag from water and let rest until cooled enough to handle.  Open bag and your omelet will slide right out onto your plate.
 
 
Enjoy!
 
I love almost any kind of hot sauce on my eggs.  How about you?
