Omelets in a bag!

Having gestational diabetes has really limited the kinds of foods that I can eat, but there's one food that is a definite go-for-it, and that's eggs!  See this yummy omelet?
I bet you'd never guess that it was made in a bag!!!!  This is the greatest shortcut to making many omelets at once, and it's also a great idea for a camp out (all you scouters out there).  

For each omelet you will need the following:
1 freezer Ziploc bag
2 eggs
1/4 c. milk
Any filling you desire (we like cheese, olives, ham, etc....)

Here's what to do:
1.  Place all ingredients into the Ziploc bag. (If you are making more than one omelet, be sure to put each person's name on the outside of their bag.)
2.  Seal the Ziploc bag and mix up ingredients by squishing the bag with your fingers.
3.  Boil a large pot of water.  Place the Ziploc bags (make sure they're still sealed tightly) into the boiling water.  Cook in the water for 13-15 minutes.
4.  When they are done cooking you will have a perfectly cooked omelet ready to eat - yummy!
