GUSTAVO’S SAVORY & CREAMY OATS
As an Italian descendant, I love hot, creamy Italian Risotto but since it is a type of pasta made with flour, it is not as healthy as the option I will give you here. This recipe is perfect for breakfast but it can also be enjoyed as a lunch or dinner with a side salad or a side of steamed broccoli or cauliflower. I always double or triple the recipe because I don’t mind eating it for breakfast and dinner or breakfast and lunch. This is one of those recipes that seem too delicious to be compliant but it is! This recipe is inspired by Jane Esselstyn’s recipe which was inspired by Debbie Kastner.
INGREDIENTS 1 cup oat groats 3-4 cups water or vegetable broth* 1 cup fresh mushrooms, chopped** 5-6 tablespoons nutritional yeast (this will give it a “cheesy” flavor but it is optional) 1⁄2 teaspoon ground turmeric 1⁄2 teaspoon liquid smoke OR 1 (or 2) teaspoon of smoked paprika 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon onion powder 2 cups spinach, kale or any other greens of your choice, chopped 1 cup chopped, fresh tomatoes Freshly ground black pepper (optional) Hot sauce of your choice (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS Soak the whole groats in water overnight to cut the cooking time the next morning if you are going to have these oats for breakfast.
Drain the oats and place the oats and all other ingredients (minus the fresh tomatoes, pepper and hot sauce) in an Instant Pot for 5 minutes.***
*If you like it less creamy, use 4 cups of water. The oats will eventually get tick and creamy after they sit for a while since they continue to absorb water. **If you don’t like mushrooms, you might want to try Brussel sprouts. ***You can also cook these on the regular stove but you will have to cook them longer, probably 20 minutes or until they are soft and creamy.
After they are cooked, I like to place them in a big bowl and I add another serving of fresh greens on top together with the chopped tomatoes and the hot sauce. Enjoy and don’t blame me if you become addicted to these oats!
