Allison: Green Dog Wine

I never cared for oatmeal very much – and when I started to lose weight and eat a healthier diet – it was like someone had flipped a switched.

I was intrigued by oatmeal – I actually WANTED to try it and like it – and sure enough – I did. 

Everything from sweet to spicy to salty to crazy – I’ve tried it.  What has become my favorite breakfast – I had serious doubts about the first time I made it.  Spicy Oatmeal. 

I suffer from a hot sauce addiction – I think Frank’s Red Hot belongs on every food under the sun.  One morning – I decided oatmeal shouldn’t be excluded.  I put my brain to work, and came up with a combination of Quick Cook Steel Cut Oats (from TJ’s – my very favorite), and added 1 poached egg, and 1 Morning Star Sausage Patty.  I added just the right amount of hot sauce for me (about ¼ of the bottle!), and topped it with a sprinkle of dried chives!   Absolute heaven in a bowl!

Now that I’ve gone spicy – it’s hard for me to go back to sweet, although that does make for a nice change.

Next time you are feeling adventurous – try it out – I promise it won’t disappoint!
