Savory Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Oatmeal
Ingredients
- 1/3 cup Old Fashon or Rolled Oats
- 2/3 cup Milk
- 1 pat Butter
- 1/2 tsp Honey
- 1 Egg Fried
- 1 Tbsp Crumbled bacon or diced pancetta
- 1/4 Cup Grated cheese Cheddar, Parmesan, etc.
- Salt and Pepper
Instructions
- Fry up the bacon or pancetta if you don't have some on hand.
- Combine oatmeal, butter, and milk. Microwave on high for 2-3 miuntes covering the bowl with a loose paper towel to catch bubble sprays. You could add a tiny pinch of salt, but using salted butter should be enough.
- Drizzle honey on top of the oatmeal and let it stand.
- Meanwhile, grate the cheese and fry the egg. Use a pinch of salt and plenty of pepper on the eggs. Take your time here as the oatmeal needs to sit for a while to cool and finish absorbing the milk.
- Top oatmeal with bacon/pancetta, egg, and cheese. The bacon/pancetta and the cheese will convey a good bit of salt. If you used a lot of pepper on the eggs it will convey that too, so adjust the seaoning at the table where you can tase everything together.
