I had to use an 8x8 foil pan cuzz I couldn't find the smaller ones, also added tomatoes and red chili flakes - super-duper easy and DELICIOUS!!! This is now my go-to breakfast for camping - which we do often!!! Thanks!!!

for the people that cook the eggs by boiling them in ziplock bags, its really not a good idea to do that because the Ziplock people said not to because when the plastic is heated it lets off bad stuff (chemicals, poisons, ect.) and it also can break.

I fixed this for supper the other night and it was WONDERFUL!! Iput it in a 8" square baking pan since I didn't have any foil pans and set it on the grill and it came out beautiful. Will make this again and again. Thank You for offering this recipe!!

Could this be prepared and baked at home, frozen and reheated in the microwave or in a electric warmer? Can you freeze uncooked eggs?

We live in Montana, & my husband loves to hunt. Trying to keep whole eggs from freezing and cracking was always a challenge until this recipe. Now after whisking the eggs, we add what other ingredients we like & put everything in a zip lock baggie then freeze them. It is much easier to keep something froze when it's winter. First one up in the morning, puts water in kettle to boil, put the bags in for approximately 8-10 minutes & you have an omelet. No need to even fold, they just come out that way. taste great!

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.

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.

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?
