A friend of mine showed me this a while back, and I just remembered.

Take a sandwich sized zip-lock bag

Pour as many eggs as you want.. I do 2 eggs
and all the filler diced up (ham, onions, sausage, peppers, whatever your heart desires)
don't forget the cheese.

close the bag, shake it up a bit..

Then drop it in boiling water for approximately 5 minutes (I'm guessing on the time here)

You can pre-package these, and freeze them before the trip..

Real easy to do..
enjoy

Not a bad idea. Here's another thought for eggs. Crack them into a Nalgene bottle (or similar), season, and whisk. Add your pre-diced fillers from ziplocks. That's how we roll.
 
It's easier to crack an egg into the wide mouth and the screw top lid makes it easy to open/close. Personally, I have never had one crack......evidence?

Splitshot......these are what I mean.

I am not in the location of the bottles right now but I will be next week. If my employees have not thrown them away, I'll post up some pics.

I will say the wide mouth is convenient but the price for them is a little high. I just mainly use them for water so I went back to just filling a used water bottle that you buy at a gas station.

I agree that they're not the best water bottle out there. I reuse the bottles from gatorade/bottled water/etc. I actually don't like the wide mouth for drinking out of.......it's hard to get a good seal without the insert thingamabob. I prefer the small mouth ones for drinking out of.

Ok, I've seen those.

Medical field has something similar but in a softer plastic. My brother-in-law works for the VA, and has access to them.
 
I've also seen people use Nalgene's just for storing their pre-cracked eggs for camping.. It's funny seeing a bottle full of egg yolks.. (not shaken, so still in tact)
Pretty convenient just pour out how many eggs you want, and you don't have to get your hands dirty..

The trips I take they'd be scrambled, resting period required for beer also..
 
I buy a carton of egg beaters for rough traveling. I think there is a brand of regular scrambled eggs too. They don't taste as good, but it's better than a bunch of broken eggs floating in the beer cooler. (happened to a friend last weekend, also a broken jar of homemade olive oil) It was comical.
