ZIPLOC OMELET

OK I have never really tried this myself, but it looks like it would be fun for kids at a family reunion or something.

(This works great !!! Good for when all your family is together. The best part is that no one has to wait for their special omelet !!!) Have guests write their name on a quart-size Ziploc freezer bag with permanent marker. Crack 2 eggs (large or extra-large) into the bag (not more than 2) shake to combine them. Put out a variety of ingredients such as: cheeses, ham, onion, green pepper, tomato, hash browns, salsa, etc. Each guest adds prepared ingredients of choice to their bag and shake. Make sure to get the air out of the bag and zip it up. 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. Open the bags and the omelet will roll out easily. Be prepared for everyone to be amazed. Nice to serve with fresh fruit and coffee cake; everyone gets involved in the process and a great conversation piece.
You can get these ready the night before, and put the bag in boiling water while you get ready. And in 13 minutes, you got a nice omelet for a quick breakfast!!!
I used tomatoes, ham, green onions, cheddar cheese and mushrooms in this one! MMMM . . .MMMMMMMM Try it. . . .it really works!!!

We did these at some YW activity or something when I was growing up - I forgot all about them! We'll have to do it with the kids, so thanks for the reminder!
