I just remember my mom telling me to drink soup in the morning and then make me this bland oatmeal so I asked her hey mom why don’t we just cook the soup with oatmeal…. kill two birds with one stone. Tada!! But of course, through the years I’ve made tons of different combinations of this now this simple savory oatmeal with egg is my number one hearty go-to breakfast I make for myself and my family.
Fiber ✅ Healthy Fats ✅ Protein ✅
Savory oatmeal with eggs is definitely in my weekly breakfast rotation. My kids love savory oatmeal. I’ve been making this for them ever since they can eat.
Ingredients to make this Recipe
- Rolled Oats: I prefer using rolled oats because it’s a little quicker than steel-cut oats.
- Chicken Broth or Bone Broth: I make bone broth every Sunday so I use bone broth or store-bought chicken broth. I prefer to use trader joe’s organic chicken broth.
- Avocado: Avocado is incredibly nutritious! I think we all know that…but just in case you don’t here’s the link.
- Egg: I like putting a poached egg on the top but my kids like fried eggs. Imagine cutting the egg open and the yolk just rushing out onto your oatmeal.
- Olive oil: So rich in healthy fats…we like to drizzle a little to top off the oatmeal.
- Chia Seeds: Whenever I make oatmeal or smoothies, I always mix in some chia seeds. They have several benefits, for example, they are high in antioxidants, have iron, fiber, calcium, and HDL (good) cholesterol.
- Flaxseeds: Another great seed we love to put into our savory oatmeal with an eggs bowl. It is great for digestion and helps with constipation.
Notes: If you are a vegetarian, and don’t want to make savory oatmeal with chicken, let’s make a plant base oatmeal bowl, by replacing the chicken broth with just vegetable broth.
