Directions

Directions

  1. Add the oats, broth, and soy sauce to a sauce pan over high heat. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer until the oatmeal is tender, about 10 minutes.

  2. Coat a small nonstick sauté pan with cooking spray. Add the mushrooms and sauté until tender and all liquid is evaporated, about 4 minutes. Add the lime juice and sauté until the liquid has evaporated. Stir the mushrooms into the oatmeal porridge.

  3. Clean the sauté pan, then add cooking spray. Fry the eggs until the yolks are just set.

  4. In a bowl, pour in 3/4 cup oatmeal porridge, top with a fried egg, and 1 1/2 Tsp. scallions and cilantro. Repeat for the remaining 3 bowls.
