Ziploc Omelets for a Crowd

This is an unusual way to cook eggs, but lots of fun!
Course Breakfast

Ingredients
  

  • Quart Sized Ziploc Bags
  • Black permanent markers
  • Large eggs
  • Assorted cheeses, ham cubes, chopped onion, chopped green pepper, chopped tomatoes, salsa, jalapenos, cooked veggies
  • Salt and pepper

Instructions
 

  • Place a large pot of water over high heat and bring to a boil.
  • Have each guest write their name on the outside of a Ziploc bag with permanent marker. Crack 2 eggs into each bag and shake to combine them. Do not add more than 2 eggs.
  • Have each guest add the additions of their choices into each bag and mix well. Remove air from bag and seal securely.
  • Place the bags into rolling, boiling water for exactly 13 minutes. You can usually cook 6-8 omelets in a large pot. For more, make another pot of boiling water.
  • At the end of 13 minutes, open bags and omelets will roll out easily. Be prepared for everyone to be amazed. Enjoy!
  • Note: These are nice to serve with fresh fruit and coffee cake; everyone gets involved in the process and a great conversation piece.
