    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.

    Imagine having these ready the night before, and putting the bag in boiling water while you get ready. And in 13 minutes, you got a nice omelet for a quick breakfast!!!

    Note: the person that sent this to me said she actually did 14 minutes.

    Enjoy.

    remember to use ziplock freezer bags not some cheap sandwich bags. the cheap bag will melt a hole in the rapid boil water. freezer bags are pretty thick compared to others.



    for those wondering those are not my liver spotted hands in the pics. those are the pics that were sent to me with this recipe.
