Cook the Oats: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup rolled oats, 2 cups water, and 1/4 tsp salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat, and let it simmer, stirring occasionally. Cook according to the package instructions, usually around 5-10 minutes, until the oats are tender and the liquid is absorbed.
Prepare the Toppings: Eggs: While the oats are cooking, prepare your eggs. You can scramble them in a pan, fry them sunny-side-up, or boil them, depending on your preference. Green Onions: Thinly slice 2 green onions. Cheese: Grate 1/4 cup sharp cheddar cheese.
Assemble the Oats: Once the oats are cooked, stir in 1 tbsp butter for added creaminess. Spoon the oats into serving bowls.
Top the Oats: Sprinkle the oats with the sliced green onions, grated cheddar cheese, and top with the cooked eggs.
Serve with Banana: Slice 2 small bananas and serve them on the side for a touch of natural sweetness.
Notes
Leftovers: Store any leftover oats in an airtight container in the fridge. Reheat with a splash of water or milk to loosen up the consistency when ready to eat.
Eggs: The eggs can be cooked to your preference—scrambled, fried, or hard-boiled. Feel free to season with additional salt and pepper as desired.
