Do your omelets always end up looking like scrambled eggs? Are you one of those people that just can't make an omelet? Well, here's a simple method that will produce a pretty decent looking omelet every time. It's very simple. We call it the "Cheater's Omelet" because it is not fried in a skillet like the traditional omelet. Give it a try and see if your family can guess how you cooked it.

This recipe is for a plain omelet but you may add any of the following, as desired:
* 1/2 cup chopped ham, crumbled sausage or bacon (pre-cooked)
* 2 tablespoons onion, minced
* 2 tablespoons chedder cheese, shredded
* 1/3 cup salsa or tomato sauce
* bell pepper, spinach, zucchini, broccoli

Plain Omelet Ingredients
* 2 eggs (use 3 eggs for hearty appetites)
* 2 tablespoons water or milk
* 1/2 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon white pepper
(black pepper may be substituted)

Directions
1. Combine eggs and water (or milk) in a small mixing bowl and beat the eggs with a fork or whisk until light and frothy. Add salt and pepper.
2. Pour egg mixture into a zip lock plastic bag. See note 2 below.
3. Add any other ingredients, as desired, to the plastic bag. Seal and shake to mix. See note 1 below.
4. Add water to a large pot and bring to a boil. See note 3 below.
5. Place the plastic bag in the boiling water and cook 15 minutes.
6. Remove omelet from water and fold out on a serving plate.
Serve hot. Makes one omelet.

NOTES:
1. Any ingredients added (meat or vegetables) must be cooked separately first. Just saute onions, peppers, etc., in a frying pan until tender
2. For a one to three egg omelet, use a zip lock sandwich bag. If cooking more than 3 eggs, use a one gallon size bag.
3. Use a pot large enough that the plastic bag is not folded. Use enough water to cover the bag.
