Have each guest write their name on their bag - FREEZER Quart size ziplock bag. Each person puts 2 eggs in a and works it with their hands to mix it up. I have all kinds of ingredients to add to the bags - bacon, peppers, cheese, hot sauce, onions, mushrooms, etc. Have stock pots of water boiling - I usually don't put more than 6 bags in a pot at a time and set the timer for 13 minutes. Be exact about the time.The omelets will slide out of the bag. I serve them with flour tortillas.Good Luck!
