Stir-Fry and Omelets are something that we enjoyed coming up
with and putting together. They are versatile and you can pack them full of
protein and vegetables.
Stir-Fry
We made a huge batch of this each; I think we got somewhere
close to 25 to 30 cups each. Both of us made out own because we like different
things in it. It started with the same base of bell peppers (red, green,
orange, and yellow), onions, and chicken and then we each added what we liked
from there.
Ally added cans of baby corn, bean sprouts and a jar of
salsa to her batch. While I added mushrooms and salsa to mine. I would have
added more but I wanted to also be able to use mine for a fajita. For the
Fajitas I just take ½ of the frozen 1 cup and put it on a small tortilla, and save the
rest for another meal the next day.
If you don’t like just eating the stir-fry plain try
freezing it in ½ cup bags and then serving it over ½ a cup of rice or noodles. And instead of salsa try adding a low sodium teriyaki or sweet and sour sauce. You can even make your own sauce from scratch so you'll know exactly what is in it.
Omelets
We both liked these and made them the same way. They are also known as "Omelets in a Bag" or "Camping Omelets." Taking our
measuring cup (1 cup/250ml) we cracked in three small eggs and whisked them
with a fork, then filled the rest of the measure with shredded cheeses
(cheddar), green onions, and ham. Pour your uncooked omelet directly into the
baggie and freeze (uncooked).
When it comes time to eat, you take it out of the freezer
and unthaw, then place in a pot of boiling water for 12 to 13 minutes. For this
recipe you are going to want to use a good quality Zipper bag so that when it
is cooking in the water it doesn’t split open.
Hint: if you forget to take your meal out of the freezer
with enough time to unthaw then just place it in a bowl of cold water. The
omelets should only take about twenty minutes or less.
XOXO, Evie & Ally
