Freeze ahead omlette experiment

Omletes! Who doesn't love an omelet? Some of us are MUCHO better at making a perfect omlete. Most of the time I start making an omlette then end up stirring into veggie scrambled eggs. Tastes the same and much less frustrating! LOL  Anyway, whatever level of skill we can probably agree that we love omletes! I had some veggies out of my garden, tomatoes from a friends garden, and a few grocery veggies that needed to be used up. So I stared at this pile of yummy veggies until Savannah said she wanted scrambled eggs. DING DING DING! Freeze ahead omletes! Of course I went ahead and made Savannah's breakfast first, then went into freeze ahead mode.

So for breakfast Savannah's (my beautiful snazzy little 3yr old) got a veggie omlette this morning that consisted of: 1 egg, kale, onions, banana pepper, green bell pepper, tomatoes, garlic, salt & pepper
I turned her omlette into an omlette sandwich, but lets just say there was only 2 bites left of an entire breakfast sandwich. So I pressed forward!

Here is my photo journey through my "freeze ahead omlette experiment"

The veggies I started with are on this plate.


Washed up veggies, squeezed extra juice from tomatoes


Chopped all the vegetables



Tossed with a fork, portioned out in 1/2 cup measurements


Placed each portion into a sandwhich bag


Just one bowl full gave me 7 bags of 1/2 cup of veggies to place in future omlettes.


And finally all small sandwhich bags, placed into one big freezer zip lock for later!



Really excited for Saturday morning breakfast now! If all goes well the remainder of the same ingredients will all find themselves froze ahead the same way in larger portions for other meals like meatloaf, spaghetti, etc
