Ingredients

  • 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

Instructions

  • 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.
