Omlette in a bag


I made this recipe to serve 6. It's a great recipe with very little clean up and it's super easy.

16 large eggs (use 2 eggs for smaller omlettes and 3 for larger)
milk
salt & pepper
quart size freezer bags
(fillings of your choice)
I used diced ham, chopped bacon, sliced mushrooms(in the can, drained), diced onion & green bell pepper, shredded cheese & picante sauce.

(I used a large measuring cup to prepare the mixture and then poured in the bags.) Make 1 omlette per bag.
Add your eggs and a little milk and whisk together. Add your fillings and whisk with the eggs. Pour the mixture in a freezer bag. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and place the bags in the boiling water and let them cook for about 12-15 minutes for large and 10 minutes for small. Remove the bags with tongs and place on a plate and let sit for 2-3 minutes before removing from the bags. The omlettes should slide out easily. Top with cheese and picante sauce.
They taste just as good as you get at a restaurant, and my family loved them.

Tip: If some of the eggs in your finished omlette is still a little runny, microwave the omlette for about 30 seconds.
