Title: Omelet in a bag...
Post by: Hookset on Sep 01, 2005, 10:13 AM

Here's another recipe for great food with limited gear, and it is extremely easy to do:


Ingredients:

-  You will need one of the ziplock bags that can go in boiling water, which many can
-  Two eggs (or as many as you would like, but they have to fit in the bag
-  Cheese
-  Your favorite omelet additives (pepper, onion, garlic, basil, ham, etc)
-  Boiling water

The deal:

Add two eggs in the ziplock bag.  With a spoon, whisk them until mixed.  Add your favorite omelet stuffing and cheese.  Zip the bag closed and ensure a tight seal.  Toss the bag in the boiling water and let cook about 5 minutes.  You may want to rotate the bag to let it cook evenly, but I don't really think it matters.  Once you see the egg is cooked, just remove the bag, unzip and serve.  It may sound weird, but it works GREAT.  It's nice to have a tasty breakfast in the woods and start the day off right.  Good luck!

We do the exact same thing when camping.  It is so easy and taste good too.  Also it is nice when there is a big family because everybody can have exactly what they want in them.  Also if the pot is big enough then you can cook them all at once so that they get done at the same time.  Then nobody is waiting or have to watch somebody eat all that yummy food until yours is done. 

We have this every time we camp and I suggest everybody try it!   Just make sure the zip lock bag is completely shut.  Definitely don't want a soggy omelet.

This works amazingly well. We now do it every single time we camp!
