Tip

Cheddar Tip

Select sharp cheddar when using packaged shredded cheese from recipes that you’d like to have a bolder flavor. If you will be shredding cheese at home from bulk cheddar, you can choose from mild, medium, sharp and extra sharp.

Yes, we use different size zip lock bags. Gallon for the hungry person. Smaller bags for children...

We take zip lock bags, write the persons name on the bag. We have a roaster oven filled with boiling water and we have a huge bowl with eggs we whipped and then we have little bowls cheese in one, onion, chopped ham, mushrooms.... the person takes the zip lock bag puts the ingredients they want and zip it close. Put that bag into the boiling water for maybe ten minutes. Viola!! Eggs are cooked. serve with bacon, or sausage, potatoes... Our camping days are awesome!! We have maybe 50 to 70 people. We have had little gatherings of 15 people too. More people more roasters.We always look forward to camp. Kids have fun too. And are more willing to eat there mix.

I would like to try this recipe but don't have a grill. I am planning to have a campout meal with my young grand daughters in my back yard but will need to bake in my oven. At what temp and time do you think would work best? Thank you.

we live in texas and go camping alot. this sounds great. we will try it. What caught my attention is I was born in Mattoon and lived there for 13 years. That is really cool.

I make omelettes quick and easy by boiling them in a bag...break your eggs in a ziploc bag and add what ingredients you like..before you even leave to go camping. I take along a pot to boil water in over my fire...throw the bags in.. careful not to let them touch the sides too much so they dont melt.. I find skewers pushed thru the top of the bags and laid over the top of the pot works nicely...each person can customize their eggs to their liking. This is a hit with my family.

Could you do this recipe in the oven?

I will be visiting friends at their cabin, but don't want to spend a lot of time in the kitchen.

Can these Breakfast eggs in the foil bowls be done in an oven instead of on a grill.

How long do they need to cook?

The same as a casserole in a 13 x 9 pan?

We are making these bowls over the weekend. I'm glad I noticed your review on the website. The mushroom add in sounds wonderful. Thanks!
