Melissa Hemsley’s pizza omelette
This is great for a solo breakfast or a 10-minute supper and it travels well, too. If you have any leftover veg that needs eating – a bit of broccoli, the end of a zucchini, half a capsicum – chop it up and add to the mushrooms as they fry. Use a wide, ovenproof frypan, so that the pizza omelette is thin and sets in just a few minutes. Serve with rocket, or any leaves, dress with lemon juice and olive oil, says Melissa.
