Black Pepper & Parmesan Oatmeal

from Black Pepper Parmesan Oatmeal with Eggs & Greens, the Week of March 18, 2012.
View the previous recipe for this meal.

I love oatmeal. I just find that the common dried fruit & honey toppings are too sweet for me most days. One day I decided to go completely savory stirring in a generous amount of black pepper & parmesan and my breakfast has never been the same.

Ingredients

  • ½ cup rolled oats
  • 1 cup water, or broth
  • 1 tablespoon butter, unsalted, or extra-virgin olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper, more or less, to taste
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese, or more to taste

Serving Size: 1 Person



 

Preparation Instructions

Place the oatmeal in a small saucepan over medium heat. Toast for about 2-3 minutes until you can smell toasty oats. Pour in the water or broth and bring up to a simmer for about 5 minutes until the oatmeal is your desired consistency. For thicker oats, cook a bit longer. For thinner oats add more water.

Remove from the heat and stir in the butter, salt and pepper. Adjust to your own taste. Finish with the grated parmesan again adding more or less as you like.
