Omelets in a Bag!

Jed and I spent last weekend at the Young family reunion and are unable to make it to the Goodrich camp out this weekend. So sad! So in honor of the occasion, I want to share with you a fun idea Jed's family does when they go camping (I had never ever heard of this, so maybe some of you haven't either).

It's called omelets in a bag. Basically what you do is put all of the ingredients you like in your omelets in a plastic zip lock bag (the size larger than the sandwich baggies... maybe it's a pint?).

What you need:
Eggs (2-4 fit well in a pint sized baggie)
plastic bags
magic marker (to write names on the top of the bags)
mushrooms
tomatoes
onions
peppers
cheese
chopped up ham
anything else you like on your omelets
S&P

Put everything in the bag, smoosh it to mix it all up, write your name on the top of the bag, and place it in a pot of boiling water (try to leave the top sticking out of the water... the bags tend to stay upright though). It could take anywhere from 5-15 min to finish. The bags start floating when the eggs are done, but smoosh it up a little just to make sure it is cooked through to the middle.

My Mother in Law chopped everything up and put it out, and we all assembled our own omelets. This is perfect for a large crowd because everyone gets to make their own. The best part? Clean up is a cinch!

You could even make these at home. They really are tasty and so easy too! Yum!

Aaron's Stuffed Breakfast Biscuits (Beth)

Start your coals NOW!!!

2 cans refridgerated biscuits
6-8 fried eggs (we did this the night before, while we were cooking dinner)
12-14 pieces Canadian Bacon (or use a sausage patty, or regular bacon)
6-8 slices American cheese

Line the Dutch Oven with foil and butter the bottom. Flatten out the biscuits. Start with one biscuit, put an egg on it, then 2 slices bacon, then cheese and top it off with another biscuit. Squeeze the edges shut and place in Dutch. Fit as many in as you can without stacking. (We only got 6 in a 14" oven, they are big!) Put 8-10 coals on bottom and 10-14 on top. Cook for 20-30 minutes or until brown. Everything inside is all cooked, you just have to worry about warming it up and making sure the biscuits are done.
These were way good and you can just hold them in your hand to eat!
Aaron came up with this all by himself!!!!
(Note:Make sure you salt and pepper the eggs while you are cooking them!)

I'm sure you could do this in your oven for a fun weekend brunch!

Chicken Foil Dinners (Beth)

I got this recipe from a former co-worker, Jen Grimm McFarland. (I have to give name recognition!) I was tired of the old hamburger patty/potato foil dinners. And you can make this in the oven! But if you want the best Hamburger patty/potato foil dinner, call my mom-she makes the best!!!!

4 boneless/skinless chicken breasts
1 medium sliced zucchini
1 sliced red pepper, or green or orange or yellow (I going for color here!)
1 small chopped onion
1/4 cup BBQ sauce, plus 2 tablespoons
2 minced garlic cloves
Layer in the middle of a square piece of foil. Fold up and place on a cookie sheet.
Bake at 350 for 40 minutes.
OR throw it in the fire IF you are camping!!!! And roast a twinkie while you wait!
