Bacon and tomato omelet



Serves 1
 
The bacon can be chopped and cooked the night before, the tomato can diced and you can have the eggs already cracked, so all you need to do in the morning is heat the pan, and throw in all in, it is literally the 2 minute breakfast!
You can add baby spinach etc to this if you want

Ingredients

2 eggs + 1 tbsp water, whisk together
60g cooked bacon (or more!) you could use smoked salmon or ham
1/2-1 tomato diced, or cherry tomatoes
a sprinkle of grated cheese (opt)



Method

In a pan heat a little butter, throw in your eggs, swirl to coat pan, then put in your cooked bacon, tomato and cheese (and spinach if using), let is cook and set for one minute, then tilt the pan and using a spatula or similar roll one side of the omelet so it starts to form a cylinder (rolled omelet) then put on your plate
