Saturday Breakfast in Allen Hall


We have been having breakfast by committee on Saturday mornings. A group of volunteers have been fixing pancakes, sausage, biscuits and gravy. Today, as an experiment, omelettes were added to the menu and they were warmly received so we will do them again soon. If omelettes are your breakfast of choice you might have to wait a little longer because cook time is 13 to 15 minutes but knowing that in advance should assist your patience.

Our recipe follows in case you want to do this at home.
Omelet in a bag

Who has time to wait for just one?
For parties, groups and fun breakfasts, try this "unique" way to make
several of your favorite omelettes all at once.
8 Eggs (makes 4 omelettes)
Cheese, grated
1 Tomato, chopped
1 Onion, chopped
Ham or Bacon, chopped
1 Bell pepper, chopped


1. 'Claim your bag.' Each person takes 1 quart size freezer bag
(other zip lock bags will melt so it must be a freezer bag) and writes
their name on it using a permanent marker.
2. Add two eggs to each freezer bag.
3. Add 1 tbsp of each of your desired omelette ingredients.
4. Seal the bag up tightly, making sure most of the air is out.
Shake the contents of the bag repeatedly until the eggs and
ingredients are well incorporated.

5. Add the bags to a large pot of boiling water.
Make sure the plastic is completely submerged and not touching
the hot metal on the sides.
6. Boil for 13-15 minutes.
7. Remove the bags and allow them to cool.
8.Slide the cooked omelette onto a plate.
Repeat as many times as necessary and enjoy!
