Ingredients

  • 1 cup old-fashioned rolled oats
  • 1 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 30 g grated cheese of your choice
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 large eggs
  • 2 tablespoons plain yogurt
  • 1/4 cup water (for thinning yogurt)
  • Extra grated cheese for topping
  • Additional black pepper and salt to taste

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine oats, vegetable broth, water, and salt. Stir occasionally until it reaches a gentle simmer.
  2. Lower heat to medium-low and cook, stirring frequently, until oats are tender and creamy (5–7 minutes). Add water if needed for consistency.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in grated cheese and black pepper until melted and smooth.
  4. Meanwhile, boil a small pot of water. Gently lower in the eggs and cook for 6–7 minutes for jammy centers. Transfer to cold water, then peel.
  5. In a bowl, whisk yogurt with 1/4 cup water until smooth and pourable.
  6. Spoon oatmeal into bowls. Drizzle with yogurt mixture and olive oil.
  7. Top with halved eggs, extra cheese, salt, and pepper as desired.

Notes

  • Add sautéed vegetables like mushrooms or spinach for more nutrients.
  • Swap the cheese to change the flavor—cheddar, feta, or gouda all work well.
  • Use plant-based yogurt and cheese for a dairy-free version.
  • Oatmeal can be made ahead and reheated with a splash of broth or water.
  • Top with seeds or fresh herbs for added texture and freshness.
