Multiple Omelets at Once

Slickest trick I've seen in ages, wish I could credit it properly. Unfortunately it arrived source unknown.

You won't get the pretty browning in the bags. However, not washing a skillet seemed worth the tradeoff and the pot wasn't really messy.

From the friend who sent: I also tried poaching an egg since I didn't have a little poach pot and it worked just fine. You only have to remember to use freezer Ziplocs not regular. I also tried putting in three extra-large and they just didn't cook as well. So I tried cooking a little longer than 13 minutes and it still didn't work as well. Two eggs and goodies made the best omelet I'd had in a while, very fluffy.

If you go overboard with stuffing and eggs aren't done after 13 minutes you could zap it in micro ~ on a plate, not in the bag. Maybe save cheese and salsa for the top.

Will have to try a breakfast burrito with eggs, potatoes (cooked first), onions, cheese and tortillas. No doubt torts would sink into eggs, kind of an inside/outside wrap ... we shall see. Stand by for the newsflash! Lemme know how your efforts work out, successful or otherwise.

Aha! Excellent idea already: I'll try frozen Potatoes O'Brien (they've got peppers, onions already), stir fry 'em first.

Clarifications:

No milk?

No milk.

Did you beat the eggs?

Squished everything around. Why dirty a bowl? If you must whisk, do it in the bag. Or fork it ...

Do you start timing right away or when the water returns to a boil? I'm guessing it will stop boiling when I put the bag in.

Maybe just a few seconds, once it hits full rolling again start timing. If you don't put a lot of stuff in, check it after 12 minutes. Watch for gray edges.
 

I put in fresh spinach, diced tomatoes and sliced mushrooms. I'm boiling the water now.
 

Sounds great, except I don't do 'shrooms ... they grow in sh*t ya know

I LOVE mushrooms! I'm not sure how the spinach will fare, though. I plan on putting shredded cheddar and salsa on top when it's cooked. It wants to float - should I keep pushing it down?

I didn't. Did you squeeze air out?

Yep.

Thinking ... does seem like they were floating, more like bobbing around. Geeeeeeeeeeze, that was days ago ... who remembers.
 

Six minutes (out of 12) left - I rolled it over. :)

Gettin' pretty intense here. I think we both need a life.
 

Maybe when you do more than one they keep each other down. LOL!

Maybe you should call StewRat.

Why would I do that when I have you???
 

Now there's a real LOL.

Enter another Party Animal:

We made the omelets for dinner tonight. VERY FUN!! They came out great - only issue I have is the "doneness" - they were too well done for my taste. Do you know if they're cooked less time, will they turn out OK? Also, my cheese kinda disappeared. No runny gooey goodies but just dry. I put the same amount of cheese I would have put in a single omelet (about a quarter cup shredded). All in all, they turned out great though. Look amazing!
 

Back to PA1:

I just took a pic. I will send when I figure out how to use my new digital camera. It LOOKS good!

Hang on, gotta answer PA2.

Back to: if they're cooked less time ... depending on how undone you mean, take a minute or two off. Can always nuke for a few seconds on a plate. Probably couldn't get the zipper to close right to go back in pot.

What about my cheese?

Hmmm, I used a coupla slices of provolone. Seemed like plenty. Use more next time or decorate the top with extra. Glad you had fun. I've just been hanging with PA1 for her first. Waiting on taste report.

It was great! I cooked it for 12 minutes. Next time I will keep my original ingredients, add artichoke hearts and cook for just 11 minutes.
