Ingredients
  

  • Zip-top sandwich bags - one per omelet
  • 2 large eggs for each omelet
  • Desired mix-ins
  • Additional topping of choice (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Boil Water:

    Heat a large pot of water until it reaches a rolling boil.
  • Label Bags:

    If needed, label the bags with names to tell the omelets apart.
  • Fill and Seal Bags:

    Break the eggs into the bag. Toss in your chosen mix-ins. Close the bag and knead the contents to combine. Then open the seal slightly, push out extra air, and reseal tightly. Use your fingers to push the mixture down to the bag's base.
  • Cook Omelets:

    Once the water is boiling, submerge the bags and cook for exactly 13 minutes.
  • Remove and Plate:

    Take the bags out carefully (they'll be hot). Open the top and gently shake the omelet onto a plate; it will slide out easily.
  • Add Toppings:

    Optionally, add extra toppings before serving.
