Well, conbsidering that most of the frozen entrées take 5-7 minutes to cook
in a microwave, a 3-egg omelette can usually be accomplishede in a like
amount of time.

Having said that, when I think of making a weekday evening meal, most of
what I make takes an average of 30-60 minutes to make something decent.
Any of the above, including omelettes, take considerably less time.
