CAMPING MADE EASY: BOIL-IN-BAG OMELET
This is the way we have been making omelets for years when we go up north to our little cabin (with no electricity). (Please read step #6 for some options). This is so versatile that everyone can get breakfast their own way. Use whatever your hearts desire in each omelet. I usually set up an "Omelet Bar" (diced, ground or shredded, multiple choice items), and everyone grabs what ever they want. We mark each bag going into the pot with the initials of each person. So much fun. This works great over a campfire (if you have a way to put a pan over it to boil), or you can use your stove-top. My ingredient list is only approx. I never really measure, we just grab and mix. Have fun with this. Our grand-kids love this. (To all the "worry warts" out there about boiling food in plastic, please do not post a review unless you've actually made these). Everyone else, enjoy.

Steps:
- Boil a large stock pot of water.
- Mix the eggs & the 1 teaspoon of water in a quart size Zip Lock heavy duty (freezer type) baggie (to scramble) and smoosh it quite a bit.
- Add in the desired choice & amount of cheese, pre-cooked meat & veggies to the baggie. Seal (zip) the top (removing as much air as possible) and mix everything by squishing the bag. Be sure to season to your liking (salt, pepper, oregano, chili flakes etc. ) before sealing the baggie.
- Place each baggie (zipper side up) into the boiling water, and keep an eye on them. Reposition the baggies if they sit too long against the side of the pot. They usually cook in about 10 minutes to be done, but depending on how many you are cooking and the size of the pot, it may take a little longer or shorter. Just watch them is all you need to do.
- Enjoy this fun & fantastic omelet.
- Some suggestions: Make them spanish with salsa, cilantro and pre-cooked chorizo. Make them Italian with mozzarella, tomato and pepperoni. Chicken cordon Bleu with pre-cooked chicken, swiss and ham. The possibilities are endless!

ZIPLOC BAG OMELETS
I know this sounds kooky- but after all where did I get this recipe but in an old tool box ! It is dated 7-2006 at the bottom. I think the idea is a good one so I wanted to share, no I have not made it YET ! You can cook for a lot of people in a short time. Just boil water instead of getting out the omelet pan! Read on ....

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water on to a rolling boil.
- Make the mixings for your omelets, each in a different bowl. YES WHAT EVER YOU WANT you do not need to stick to this recipe, because I did not intend to write a recipe just share the idea, get out what you want. Cheese, tomato, green onions, cooked breakfast meat-bacon, sausage, ham etc, hash browns, mushrooms, olives, salsa etc.
- Give each guest a water proof marker, and a Quart size- zip lock bag.
- Have them write there name on the bag, crack 2 eggs into bag, but not use more they will not cook right, it also says large or extra large eggs. Zip closed bag, or just be careful when mixing up the eggs.
- Have guest mix up the eggs to scramble them. Unzip and add what ever ever they want. Now the recipe says get the air out of bag and zip closed, I'm thinking submerse bottom into a different bowl of water holding top of bag, carefully to not get water in bag. Zip closed.
- Place each bag into a large pot of rolling boiling water, for EXACTLY 13 minutes. Take each out and wipe off water quickly, cut zip off of bag with scissors, and slide onto plate!
- Pictures were enclosed with this recipe and it looks just too easy and good not to share. But I did not take them so I can not post them here. Sorry.
Tips:
- Choose the right pan: Use a pan that is large enough to fit the omelet without overcrowding it. A 12-inch skillet is a good size for a one-egg omelet, while a 14-inch skillet is better for a two-egg omelet.
- Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs will give you a fluffy omelet. If your eggs are more than a week old, they may not whip up as well.
- Season the eggs: Before cooking, whisk the eggs with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings. This will help to flavor the omelet throughout.
- Use a little butter or oil: Add a small amount of butter or oil to the pan to prevent the eggs from sticking. Be careful not to use too much, or the omelet will be greasy.
- Cook the omelet over medium heat: This will help to prevent the eggs from burning. Cook the omelet for 2-3 minutes per side, or until it is set and cooked through.
- Don't overfill the omelet: If you try to put too many fillings in the omelet, it will be difficult to fold and may break apart. Stick to a few simple fillings, such as cheese, ham, or vegetables.
- Fold the omelet carefully: Once the omelet is cooked, fold it in half or into thirds. Be careful not to fold it too tightly, or the omelet will be dense and chewy.
- Serve the omelet immediately: An omelet is best served immediately, while it is still hot and fluffy.
Conclusion:
Omelets are a quick and easy meal that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. There are endless possibilities for fillings and toppings, so you can customize your omelet to suit your own taste. With a little practice, you'll be able to make perfect omelets every time.
