foodMmm It’s time for another delicious recipe.  This time, we’re going to tackle a breakfast favorite – the omelet!

Making omelets can be a messy task, and most of us hate scrubbing pans while we are camping.  Well, today’s recipe offers up an alternative to cooking omelets in a frying pan.  We’re going to boil them in Ziploc sandwich bags to keep the mess under wraps.

If your family loves having omelets for breakfast, they are going to love the bag-o-omelet.  It’s a tasty, nutritional treat that is sure to start their day off with a smile.
