Ziploc Omelette

This is not so much a recipe but instead a fun and different way to prepare an omelette and a great idea for when you have guests for brunch. Each guest can assemble their own omelette from an assortment of prepared ingredients. Or you can assemble them the night before if you like so they are ready to cook in the morning.
Set out your cartons of eggs and a variety of chopped up ingredients such as:

Ham, bacon or sausages, cooked
Green and red peppers
Hashbrowns..cubed
Cheeses
Tomatoes
Onion greens
Salt and pepper to taste
Salsa and hot sauce
And whatever else you might like in an omelette.

1) Crack 2 eggs into a medium size freezer ziploc bag(not more than 2 per bag) and shake to combine.
2) Add the rest of your choice of ingredients to the bag and shake up again. Make sure to get all the air out of the bag and zip it up.
3) Place bags into a large pot of rolling, boiling water and boil for 13 to 15 min.
4) If a large group is being served you can place about 6 bags per large pot. If you need to do more have another pot of boiling water ready.
5) Remove bags carefully from the boiling water, cut off top half of the ziploc bag and roll out the omelette on a plate.
You and your guests will be amazed!

Serve up with toast and jam, fruit, muffins and coffee and you have a wonderful brunch happening:)
