Omlette in a Bag

My dad was a Beaver leader and this recipe worked wonders with the kids, and hey, it’s fun for adults too.

• Plastic Freezer Bags (One per person)
• Omlette Ingredients (green peppers, mushrooms, cheese, salsa, red peppers, tomatoes, etc)
• Eggs (2 per bag)
• Salt, pepper
• large pot, can be put on the fire or on a camp stove, filled with water

1. Each person gets their own ziplock bag, if you have a big crowd, you may want to bring along a sharpie to mark the bags.
2. Each person sprinkles their ingredients of choice into their ziplock bag. This can be done before the trip, just make sure to seal the bags airtight.
3. Crack 1-2 eggs into each bag, close the bag airtight once again, and shake them!
4. Pop the bags into a rolling boiled pot of water for 13 minutes
5. Lift the bags out of the hot water. Omlettes should just roll right out of the bags ready to eat!

mmmm..omelets are so good! I like that each person gets to personalize their own meal too. Perfect for the picky eater in the group. Thanks for sharing!

I’ve yet to make this recipe but I’m sure it will turn out to be amazingly delicious.

Curious George Crepes

• 4 8-9” flour tortillas
• 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup bananas, sliced
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1. Before you leave on your trip, mix the sugar and cinnamon together and seal into a zip-lock bag. Keep it air-tight to save on space.

2. When at the campsite, stack the tortillas together and place in a piece of aluminum foil, Wrap them up and place on indirect heat to warm them. Turn them every so often for about 6 minutes.

3. Take out the tortillas and have everyone sprinkle on their desired amount of chocolate chips and banana slices. Roll up each tortilla like a burrito, then brush on the melted butter (can be melted over the steam from a camp stove, or indirectly from a campfire if placed in a small crock type pot).

4. Grill crepes for about 3 minutes each. The chocolate chips should be melted by this time.

5. Brush on the remaining butter and dust with sugar cinnamon mixture.

Voila! Decadence even while camping!

Here’s a good one that I’ve made before that can be done both over the open fire on a grill or in a frying pan over the camp stove.
