1 Cut bread roll open in half. Place on a microwave-safe plate with the open side up. Spread each half with tomatoes and sprinkle with oregano (if using).

2 Place 2 capsicum slices on each half. Add mushrooms. Sprinkle with cheese.

3 Place the plate in microwave and zap it on full power for 45 seconds. If cheese is not melted, microwave it for 20 more seconds. Serve sprinkled with parsley if you like.
