DIY Microwave Omelette

20151022_071201.jpg

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I like a big breakfast and wanted to save some money by bringing in items from home to cook with instead of spending money on a cafe or store meal.

For this example I took from my fridge:

  • two eggs
  • a small amount of shredded cheese
  • half a diced roma tomato
  • two pieces of bread

Crack and Stir Eggs

Next I cracked a couple of eggs into a paper cup and mixed them with a plastic fork.

Dump Into Cooking Baggie With Tomatoes

Then I just poured the mixed eggs into the baggie of diced tomatoes and wiggle the bag around a shake or two.

Cook for a Minute

This is the easy part. The baggie goes onto a paper plate straight into the microwave for a minute. It's notable that sitting the baggie upright helps it not leak all over the place and no, it won't melt in only 60 seconds.

After a minute I lay it down flat as pictured in the second photo and give it another 15 seconds. Leaving it in the baggie helps trap a lot of moisture and keeps the eggs nice and wet and hot.

The last part of this step is to tear the bag open and add the cheese.

Start Toast and Add Cheese (optional)

Here is when I drop the bread into the toaster then cover the eggs in cheese.

Next throw it back in for another 15 seconds.

Transfer to Toast and Add Some Hot Sauce.

Lastly remove the omelette and transfer over to a piece of toast and add some host sauce.

Breakfast Is Ready
