Give your usual bowl of morning oats a savory twist with by using this easy savory oatmeal guide!

Provided by Kiersten

Categories     Breakfast

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup rolled cut oats
1 cup milk or water (plant-based milk also works)
1 egg
1/4 cup bell peppers (diced small)
2 tbsp yellow onion (diced small)
Herbs, salt, pepper, hot sauce (optional)
Butter (for cooking)

Steps:

  • Add the rolled-cut oats and milk (or water) to a small saucepan. Cook over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until the oats are cooked through and soaked up a majority of the liquid-about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
  • Heat up a teaspoon of butter in a small skillet. Add the bell peppers and onion and cook until the veggies are softer and slightly transluscent, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
  • In that same skillet, heat up another teaspoon of butter. Crack open the egg and cook how you desire-scrambled, over-easy, or sunny-side up.
  • Scoop the oatmeal into a bowl, top with veggies and the egg, and add any other desired topping-fresh herbs, hot sauce, etc.

SIMPLE SAVORY OATMEAL



Simple Savory Oatmeal image

Want something savory in the morning, but needs to be quick and simple? This is it. I'd compare it most readily to a deluxe cheese grits recipe, but this has no cheese--and grits (unless instant) are typically a bunch more work. This was an alternative for my 10-year-old who always wanted eggs and sausage for breakfast. Fruits and brown sugar in the oatmeal wasn't cutting it.

PERFECT MICROWAVE OATMEAL FOR ONE



Perfect Microwave Oatmeal for One image

I used to fix myself hot oatmeal every day, even when I was working. I guess I'm lazier now, and not willing to clean that pot day after day. SO, after much trial and error, I figured out how to do it right in the ce4ereal bowl, in the microwave. Pre-loading single servings -- everything but the water -- into snack-size zip bags make this an even quicker way to have my oatmeal any day I want it.

1 tablespoon raisins (or other dried fruit)

1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 -2 teaspoon brown sugar (optional, I don't do this, but sometimes I'll add a little sugar after it's cooked, if I'm in the mo)

Steps:

  • Microwave on HIGH for 2 minutes.
  • Stir and eat with a little milk and a sliced half banana. Yum!
