This looks so tasty, I love making omelettes to put in breakfast rolls. I don't tend to make proper breakfasts like this during the week when I'm working, but at the weekend this is the kind of thing I'd love to make x

I always make this spinach egg breakfast but not with cheese as I am not big on cheese but will give this recipe a try with cheese.
