Savory Tomato and Olive Oatmeal
TOTAL TIME: Prep/Total Time: 20 min.
YIELD: 1 serving.
Who says oatmeal has to be sweet? I love this recipe because it starts my day in a healthy, fulfilling way. The fresh garlic, tomatoes and basil are bright notes in a breakfast that keeps me satisfied until lunch. The oatmeal gives me protein and fiber, and I add a splash of extra virgin olive oil at the end for heart health. —Roland McAmis Jr., Greeneville, Tennessee
