I don't care for sweet oatmeal. On cold mornings, I make this hearty, low-calorie breakfast that tastes great and holds me over until lunch.

Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 2 servings

  • 1 cup water, more if needed

  • ½ cup steel-cut oats

  • ¼ cup diced tomatoes

  • ¼ cup chopped fresh basil

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 tablespoons heavy whipping cream

  • ¼ cup crumbled feta cheese

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).

  2. Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Add oats, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until tender, 10 to 15 minutes, adding more water if oats get too dry.

  3. Combine oatmeal, tomatoes, basil, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Beat eggs and cream together in a separate bowl. Fold egg mixture into oatmeal mixture; divide between 2 large ramekins or baking dishes. Top oatmeal mixture with feta cheese.

  4. Bake in the preheated oven until cooked through, about 30 minutes.

Cook's Note:

Try switching up the herbs and cheese for fun! Some combinations I like are rosemary and Gruyere, dill and Havarti, and thyme and chevre.
