# Freezer Bag Recipes This Omelette Recipe Tutorial Shows How to Cook Eggs in a Ziploc Bag By Charlotte Joyce Kidd | Published 2015-09-25 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omelette-recipe References: [sfglobe](http://sfglobe.com/2015/09/18/a-new-way-to-cook-an-old-favorite/?src=share_fb_new_46541&sv=3&xas=o46541__1443018656) & [allrecipes](http://allrecipes.com/recipe/85107/omelet-in-a-bag/) This omelette recipe tutorial from Allrecipes.com creates a beautifully prepared [savory omelette](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/egg-white-frittata), but it has an unconventional twist. The omelette recipe uses a Ziploc bag to assemble and cook the traditional breakfast dish. The omelette-in-a-bag method is much easier than the usual pan-fried omelette recipe. It involves drastically less cleanup, as it essentially only uses one disposable prep and cooking vessel. Cooks to whom it seems a little unnatural can follow the simple Allrecipes omelette recipe video tutorial to see how it's done. Essentially, the eggs go into the Ziploc bag and are squished by hand rather than whisk beaten. Then, any variety of ingredients -- chopped vegetables, diced ham or [grated cheese](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/charleston-omelet), for example -- can be added to the omelette recipe. Finally, the whole bag is cooked in a saucepan of boiling water, creating a perfectly formed omelette. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 0.3/10 - Popularity: 1% | Activity: 1% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Ziploc Cooking:** Opportunity to develop new recipes and cooking techniques using Ziploc bags. - **Disposable Cooking Vessels:** Opportunity to create more recipes that use disposable cooking vessels to reduce cleanup time. - **Boiling Water Cooking:** Opportunity to develop new recipes that use boiling water as a cooking method. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food and Beverage:** Opportunity for food industry to create new recipes and products that cater to the Ziploc cooking trend. - **Packaging:** Opportunity for packaging industry to develop new disposable cooking vessels and innovate on existing packaging solutions. - **Kitchen Appliances:** Opportunity for kitchen appliance manufacturers to develop new products and accessories that cater to the boiling water cooking trend. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Versatile Frozen Omelettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/frozen-omelettes.md) - [Convenient Scrambled Egg Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/just-crack-an-egg-1.md) - [Scrambled Egg Cups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/instant-scrambled-eggs.md) - [Durable Food Storage Bags](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ziploc-endurables.md) - [Heat-and-Eat Cheese Omelets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/egg-omelets-with-cheddar-cheese.md) - [Ready-to-Eat Omelet Snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/crepini.md) - [Value-Added Frozen Omelettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-happy-egg-co.md) - [Frozen Eggless Scrambles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zero-egg-scoopable-scramble.md) - [Heat-and-Eat Artisan Omelettes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-happy-egg-co-omelettes.md)
