Y'all sleeping on savory oatmeal. Make it with stock instead of milk or water, throw a fried egg on top, and that's good eatin

Alright, well, fuck off then. Go eat whatever. If I catch you wrinkling your nose at my breakfast I dehumanize you and treat you as an NPC, just one of the things that's installed in here that I have to walk around.

Or you can let people eat their food without commenting on their business

I've been eating a bowl of overnight oats for breakfast with just soymilk and some sugar for like two years now and I can't see it changing anytime soon. It just hits the spot for me.

Leave 50g jumbo oats and 100ml soy milk and some cinnamon mixed in a closed container overnight in your fridge. Then in the morning add a splash of additional soy milk, other stuff*, and some honey.

The other stuff I use (all at the same time):

  • pear/strawberries (depending on season)
  • walnuts
  • milled flaxseed
  • Brazil nuts
  • omega 3 seed mix (cheap and healthy)
  • dried cranberry (or raisins)
  • macadamia nuts

You can also use a nut mix (without peanuts). I just don't because I don't tolerate hazelnut well.

This breakfast is super useful because it includes so many nuts, which are recommended but quite tricky to include in one's diet. And it adds a ton of fiber and a piece of fruit.

Oats, milk, chia seeds and maple syrup in a container. Leave overnight in fridge. Great breakfast meal and a good substitute for sugary cereal.

Meanwhile: Grits + salted butter

Tbh I've always seen oatmeal as a I don't care what I'm eating so long as I'm able to eat kind of food. Infact it's the main reason I've always seen those meal replacement shakes. Like your doing all this sciencey stuff just to make what is essentially just oatmeal put through a blender. Not to mention that there really isn't anything stopping you from just putting normal oatmeal in a cup and drinking oatmeal.

Oh god. For a moment, I thought the web comic artist did something.

Meanwhile I don't even cook the oatmeal, just eat the little flakes straight up and like it.

[–] qarbone@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago (3 children)

Salt and sugar, that's it.

Just had oatmeal and blueberries. But fine. Have it your way and die angry about something innocuous that no body else cares about.

[–] Chouxfleur@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Traditional porridge is amazing. Just with a little salt added it's the most fantastic breakfast food.

[–] TAG@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Sure, it will have the flavor of cardboard if you are making instant oatmeal with hot water. It tastes great if you make kasha: slowly simmer oats in milk and sugar. It is just not worth the time investment if you are not a babushka.

[–] Ignisnex@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

When I was doing a meal plan, my breakfast was oatmeal and egg whites microwaved together, with a pinch of Splenda. None of those things should have gone together. It was not good. They would have been much better separate, but I was in a hurry. Cinnamon helped.

[–] Sorgan71@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago (1 children)

it tastes good plain. With milk

[–] RGB3x3@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago (4 children)

Ugh, it's like wet shredded cardboard when it's plain.
