Omelet in a Bag

Yield
6
Cooking Time
20 minutes

Ingredients

  • 1 C green onion
  • 1 C cheddar cheese
  • 1 C fresh mushrooms
  • 1/2 lb sausage
  • 12 eggs
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 1 pinch black pepper

Instructions

  1. Precook the sausage til done, drain on paper towels and set aside. Chop the veggies and shred the cheese and set in separate bowls so they can be grabbed assembly line fashion.
  2. Label the ziplock bags for each person who wants an omelet. Take two eggs, scramble in a bowl and pour into each baggie. For large appetites, use three eggs.
  3. Have people go down the assembly line of omelet add ins and have them add into the baggie any type of fixings that they may want in their omelet.
  4. Gently squeeze the baggie so the eggs and omelet fixings blend together. While keeping the baggie upright, zip the baggie closed most of the way, push as much air that you can from the baggie and zip it closed the rest of the way.
  5. Gently drop the baggie into boiling water for 12 minutes. For 3 eggs, boil a minute or two longer. Don't let any part of the baggie hang outside the pot. It will melt and make a mess on your pot. Watch the baggies, sometimes the egg mixture will collect to one side of the baggie resulting in a very weird shaped omelet. You might have to move the baggies around a bit so they stay "level" in the pot.
  6. Remove the baggie from the boiling water, unzip and slide it out onto a plate. Have salsa and/or sour cream for those who like to add that.
