Omelet's for a crowd -impossible you say? Well this is the easiest way to make a perfect omelet for each one of your guests made to their detailed specifications -you can even have them help by adding whatever they fancy to their baggie. Read more . My kitchen is pretty teeny so when I made these I made up a little check sheet showing all of the available ingredients. I passed these out & each guest checked off what they wanted and then me & a few helpers made an assembly line and created each baggie. **BUT be sure you write the name of each guest on their baggie -a sharpie works great These omelets are so nice & easy my husband & I have started making our own omelets this way -you only have to boil water & the cleanup is a dream -just throw away the baggie when your done.
Ingredients:
2-3 eggs -per omelet (4 or more will not work) -just make 2 if you want more
1 ziplock freezer baggie -with person's name written in sharpie or other water proof pen/marker
1 pot boiling water (only 8 baggies per pot -if more use another pot)
salt & pepper -to taste
your choice of omelet fixins
grated cheese (any kind you like)
cooked bacon crumbles
cooked sausage crumbles
scallions or finely diced onion
finely diced green pepper
tomatos -diced or sliced
salsa
spinach
artichoke hearts
the choices are endless...
Directions:
1. Put pot of water on to boil.
2. Write each parties name on ziplock freezer baggie.
3. Chop or cook any omelet fixins.
4. Break 2-3 eggs into each baggie -I ususally just crimp the bag open and after 1 egg is in it normally will stand somewhat on it's own. Just don't leave it unziped.
5. Sprinkel with salt & pepper, seal bag & squish contents in hands to mix up egg.
6. Open bag & either you add or have each guest add desired fixins.
7. Squish bag around to incorporate ingredients.
8. Squeeze out as much air as possible & seal completely.
9. Drop into boiling water & cook for 12-14 mins depending on desired doneness. You can normally tell if you squeeze omelet how much liquid is left. If you've used wet ingredients it may take a little longer.
10. Removed from boiling water with tongs & pat dry on towel.
11. Immediately open, roll onto the plate and serve. It will roll out I promise -I've made these many times & never had one not come out completely & beautifully.
