Savory Oatmeal Bowl

(makes one serving)

• 1/2 cup rolled oats
• 1 cup low-sodium chicken or vegetable broth
• 1/2 cup liquid egg whites (or 2 whole eggs)
• 1/2 cup cottage cheese or plain Greek yogurt
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder or onion powder
• 1/2 cup sautéed or steamed veggies (spinach, mushrooms, zucchini, or peppers)

Optional toppings: green onions, nutritional yeast, chili flakes, avocado slices, additional egg, etc.

1. In a small pot, bring broth to a simmer. Add oats and cook 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
2. Lower the heat and slowly stir in the egg whites, stirring continuously to prevent clumping. Cook 1–2 minutes until thick and creamy.
3. Remove from heat and stir in cottage cheese (or Greek yogurt), salt, pepper, and garlic/onion powder.
4. Fold in veggies and add desired toppings.
5. Enjoy!
