Ingredients:
2 large eggs
1/2 cup rolled oats
1 cup water or milk (for creamier oatmeal, use milk)
Salt and pepper (for seasoning)
Optional toppings: avocado, cheese, herbs, tomatoes, or fruits like berries and bananas
Instructions:
Prepare the Oatmeal:
In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup of water or milk to a boil. Once boiling, stir in the rolled oats. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats have absorbed the liquid and have reached your desired consistency. If you prefer a creamier texture, you can cook the oats for a few extra minutes or add more liquid.
Cook the Eggs:
While the oats are cooking, prepare your eggs. You can scramble, fry, or poach the eggs depending on your preference. To scramble, whisk the eggs in a bowl and cook them in a lightly greased skillet over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally. For fried eggs, heat some oil in a pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side for sunny-side-up eggs or longer if you prefer them well-done.
Combine the Oatmeal and Eggs:
Once both the oatmeal and eggs are ready, place the cooked oatmeal in a bowl and top it with the freshly prepared eggs. Add your desired seasonings (salt, pepper, or herbs) for extra flavor.
Add Toppings:
Customize your dish with optional toppings. For a savory twist, you can add avocado slices, shredded cheese, or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like parsley or chives. If you prefer a sweeter breakfast, top it with fresh fruit, nuts, or a drizzle of honey.
Serve and Enjoy:
Mix everything together, if desired, or keep the eggs on top as a beautiful garnish. Enjoy your filling, protein-packed breakfast!
