If you know me (and even if our familiarity is virtual), by now you know that I love a good savory breakfast. Don’t get me wrong: sweet brekkys have my heart as well, but there’s a special spot in there specifically for the salty.
The eggy.
The garlicky.
The toasty.
The umami….y.
Yes, friends. Savory breakfast is my jam. And I have a good feeling it’s yours, too.
I mean, come on! Even if you’re not a breakfast kind of person, who doesn’t love a good avocado toast? A breakfast sandwich? Or even the classic eggs and bacon?
YEA. Thought so. See? You’re a breakfast person. And now, we’re best friends.
All that said shall we talk about these SAVORY OATS with Roasted Tomatoes, Garlic Spinach, and Turkey Sausage?!
May sound bizarre to some, so go with me here:
- Classic oatmeal topped with parmesan, salt, and pepper
- Herby Crumbled Turkey Sausage
- Roasted, bursty cherry tomatoes
- Perfect sautéed garlic spinach
- And a yolky egg to top it all off
What more is there actually to life?!
- Family
- Friends
- Philanthropy
- Religion
- Bunnies
Ok, I guess there’s a lot. But a yolky egg atop a pile of gorgeous + delicious + nutritious food? Definitely a contender to be in my top 10.
This is definitely one of those lazy weekend, too-cold-to-go-outside kinda recipes. I gravitate towards this recipe when I know I have a long day ahead of me that I need to be fueled for (whether it be chores, errands, or plans), or on a day that I know I’ll be having two meals: breakfast and dinner. It’s healthy, satiating, and easy enough to toss together (more than likely in between throwing in loads of laundry and cleaning out my refrigerator; I am the QUEEN of multi tasking).
