Ingredients

  • 2 pieces Large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Diced bell peppers
  • 1 tablespoon Diced onions
  • 2 tablespoons Shredded cheese
  • 3 tablespoons Diced ham or cooked bacon bits
  • 1 pinch Salt
  • 1 pinch Black pepper
  • 1 piece Resealable freezer-safe plastic bag (quart size)
  • 8 cups Boiling water

Directions

Step 1

Fill a large pot with about 8 cups of water, ensuring there is enough to fully submerge the bag. Bring it to a gentle boil on medium heat.

Step 2

Crack 2 large eggs into a resealable freezer-safe plastic bag. Seal the bag and gently squeeze or shake it with your hands to mix the eggs until fully combined.

Step 3

Add the diced bell peppers, diced onions, shredded cheese, and diced ham or bacon bits into the bag. Sprinkle in a pinch of salt and black pepper.

Step 4

Seal the bag tightly, ensuring to remove as much air from the bag as possible before sealing to avoid expansion during cooking.

Step 5

Shake the bag gently to combine all ingredients thoroughly.

Step 6

Carefully place the sealed bag into the pot of boiling water, ensuring it is fully submerged but not touching the pot's edges. Allow it to cook for 13-15 minutes or until the eggs are firm and cooked through.

Step 7

Using tongs, carefully remove the bag from the boiling water. Let it cool for 1-2 minutes.

Step 8

Open the bag and slide the omelette out onto a plate. Garnish with additional cheese or fresh herbs if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!
