When sugar and milk became my enemies I created this oatmeal dish. I love oatmeal. I absolutely love this. Also, I needed to add vegetables to my diet. Even though I have given a specific recipe it will vary depending on what I have on hand. This is the first time I've used cilantro and it really adds. I personally sprinkle cayenne and garlic salt to the finished dish. Gary Ingredients:
1 cup regular oatmeal |
1 3/4 cups water |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 cup onion, diced |
1 stalk celery, diced |
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped |
1/4 cup bell pepper, diced (fresh or frozen, red and yellow add great color) |
2 eggs (optional) |
2 tablespoons lecithin granules |
Directions:
1. Prepare ingredients.
2. In sauce pan bring water and salt to boil.
3. Add onions and celery. Let boil for a few minutes to soften.
4. Add bell peppers, cilantro, and oats - mix well. Turn burner to simmer and cover pan.
5. Simmer until oats are done.
6. If using eggs add them and simmer covered for another minute or two where whites are just turning. Remove from heat and stir in eggs to incorporate and give dish a creamy texture. The residual heat will finish cooking eggs.
7. Serves two healthy portions. Top with lecithin and any other seasonings.
