Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pcs Large eggs
- 0.25 cup Shredded cheese
- 2 tbsp Diced bell peppers
- 2 tbsp Diced onions
- 2 tbsp Diced cooked ham or bacon
- 0.25 tsp Salt
- 0.125 tsp Black pepper
- 1 bag Ziploc-style freezer bag (quart-size, BPA-free)
- (as needed for cooking) Boiling water
Instructions
Fill a medium-sized pot about halfway with water and bring it to a rolling boil.
Crack the eggs into a BPA-free quart-sized Ziploc freezer bag. Seal the bag and knead the eggs with your hands to mix them.
Open the bag and add shredded cheese, diced bell peppers, onions, ham or bacon, salt, and black pepper. Seal the bag again, pressing out as much air as possible, and knead the mixture to evenly combine the ingredients.
Carefully place the sealed bag into the pot of boiling water, making sure it's fully submerged. Use a pair of tongs to adjust the position if needed.
Allow the omelet to cook for approximately 12 minutes, or until the eggs are fully set and cooked through.
Using tongs, carefully remove the bag from the boiling water. Let it cool for a minute or two before opening.
Open the bag, and slide the cooked omelet onto a plate. Serve immediately and enjoy!
