First crack two eggs into a zip-lock bag, and squish them up inside...
...like so.
Then toss a bunch of stuff into the bag with the eggs. Sarah sauteed up some mushrooms and onions for our bag omelettes, but you don't need to be that fancy.
We also had some ham, cheese and green peppers on hand. Anything you like in your omelettes can be thrown in.
Just toss 'em in and squish them up with the eggs...
...until it looks like so.
Then drop the bag into boiling water for 13-15 minutes.
After 13-15 minutes a perfect omelette will slide out onto your plate.
(Special thanks to my friends, Bob and Lynne Leih, for first introducing this to me. It's a hit with large groups, because everyone can make their own custom omelette and they can be prepared simultaneously. Just toss as many bags into the pot as will fit. Last night for our small group Bible study we probably had a dozen bags going at once.)

Nothing quite so delicious sounding as something "sliding" out onto your plate after 13-15 minutes.
Classy, right?
The idea is good, but I'd have a problem with cooking it in a plastic bag.
Im with Mom 8X. The bag omelette is no doubt tasty and convenient, but what are your feelings on the possible toxicity of the plastic being heated for so long?
This is perfect! And I'm pretty sure they sell "BPA" free plastic bags now.
I love it! Thanks Josh!
The BPA of bags vs. the atery-clogging power of butters or even MARGARINES that are used to traditionally make omelettes may be an interesting discussion.
