5-Minute Savory Oatmeal with Poached Eggs

This is one of those breakfasts that sounds a little unexpected until you try it—and then it just makes sense. Creamy oats, olive oil, warm spices, runny eggs, and everything but the bagel seasoning come together in the coziest, most satisfying bowl.

It gives you protein, healthy fat, and fiber in one bowl, and it is genuinely something to look forward to in the morning.

Ingredients

• ½ cup rolled oats

• 1 cup water, or bone broth for extra protein and flavor

• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

• ½ teaspoon smoked paprika

• Pinch of cayenne pepper

• 2 large eggs

• Splash of white vinegar, for poaching

• Everything but the bagel seasoning, to taste

Instructions

1. Add the oats and water or bone broth to a small saucepan.

2. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook until the oats are soft and creamy, about 5 minutes.

3. Stir in the olive oil, smoked paprika, and cayenne.

4. While the oats cook, poach the eggs. Bring a pot of water to a gentle simmer, not a boil.

5. Add a splash of white vinegar to help the egg whites hold together.

6. Crack one egg into a small bowl.

7. Create a gentle swirl in the water and gently slide the egg into the center.

8. Cook for 3–4 minutes for a runny yolk, or about 5 minutes for a jammy yolk.

9. Repeat with the second egg.

10. Spoon the savory oats into a bowl and top with the poached eggs.

11. Finish with everything but the bagel seasoning.

15-Minute Bacon, Egg, Avocado & Cheese Breakfast Spring Rolls

These breakfast spring rolls are such a fun way to switch things up. They have the familiar flavors of a bacon, egg, and cheese breakfast, but wrapped into a handheld spring roll with creamy avocado.

You can keep them soft and chewy, or pan-fry them for a crispier texture. Either way, they’re satisfying, flavorful, and a little unexpected—in the best way.

Ingredients

• 3 rice paper spring roll wrappers

• 2 large eggs

• 2 slices cooked bacon

• ⅛ avocado, thinly sliced or mashed

1. Cook the bacon until crisp, then set aside on a paper towel.

2. Scramble, fry, or fold the eggs into a thin omelet-style layer.

3. Season the eggs with salt and pepper.

4. Slice or crumble the bacon.

5. Thinly slice or mash the avocado.

6. If using cheese, slice it into small strips or sprinkle shredded cheese over the warm eggs so it slightly melts.

7. Fill a shallow dish with warm water.

8. Dip one rice paper wrapper into the water for a few seconds, just until pliable.

9. Lay the wrapper flat on a clean surface.

10. Add a portion of the eggs, bacon, avocado, and cheese to the center.

11. Fold the sides inward, then roll tightly like a burrito.

12. Repeat with the remaining wrappers.

13. Serve as-is for a softer spring roll, or pan-fry in a lightly oiled skillet for a crispier texture.
