Have you tried savory oatmeal yet? I had been hearing about it for awhile, but when I finally tried this, it was LIFE CHANGING. This recipe is delicious, and you could change it up in so many ways with different veggies and toppings. It’s extra good with an egg on top, as many things are!

- 1 cup rolled oats
- 1 cup chicken or vegetable broth
- 1 1/2 cups water

- Heat the oil over medium heat in a saucepan and add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the mushrooms and continue cooking until softened, about 5 minutes.
- Add the thyme leaves, oats, broth, and water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 8 minutes or until thickened. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
