LaTeX table non-split cell with diagonal split colour

Question

Kind of a weird circumstance, but I have a table cell where I need the text to be in the cell normally (non-split) and the cell colour to be split diagonally.

I know how to use slashbox to split the cell, but there doesn't seem to be any way to split the colour without also splitting the text. Basically, I need it to look like this:

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Since you didn't add an MWE, I can only suppose this is what you need:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{makecell}
\usepackage{tikz}
\usetikzlibrary{matrix}
% code (slightly modified) from https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/343392/101651
\tikzset{
diagonal fill/.style 2 args={fill=#2, path picture={%
\fill[#1] (path picture bounding box.south west) -|
                         (path picture bounding box.north east) -- cycle;}},
reversed diagonal fill/.style 2 args={fill=#2, path picture={
\fill[#1] (path picture bounding box.north west) |- 
                         (path picture bounding box.south east) -- cycle;}}
}


\begin{document}
\begin{table}
\centering
\begin{tikzpicture}
\matrix[matrix of nodes,
    row sep=-\pgflinewidth,
    column sep=-\pgflinewidth,
    column 2/.style={nodes={text width=4.5cm}},
    row 1/.style={nodes={minimum height=7ex}},
    align=center,
    text centered,
    nodes={text width=2cm,
        text height=1.5ex,
        text depth=.25ex,
        minimum height=4ex,
        }] (mymatr) {
|[reversed diagonal fill={green}{red}]|\makecell{Let's\\recap} & \makecell{Van Duck's \\rules}\\
1& Read the manuals\\
2& Look at the log\\
3& Search on \TeX.SE\\
4& |[diagonal fill={yellow}{orange}]|\color{blue}\bfseries Always add an MWE\\
};
\draw[thick] (mymatr-1-1.north west) -- (mymatr-1-2.north east);
\draw (mymatr-1-1.south west) -- (mymatr-1-2.south east);
\draw[thick] (mymatr-5-1.south west) -- (mymatr-5-2.south east);
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{table}
\end{document}
