...Savory Oats...

...I've only ever had sweet oats...and it's never even occurred to me to have them any other way than with brown sugar/cinnamon/raisins...

...but I was intrigued with I saw these little instant oatmeal packets at the Indian Store...and I knew I wanted to try them out...
...the first one that appeals to me is the Peppy Tomato...it sounds yummy...
...and this is what it looks like out of the packet...oats...spices...and dehydrated tomatoes...
...added some boiling water...
...and some fresh chopped tomato...just because I had one on the windowsill...
...and I really enjoyed these savory oats...they're a little bit salty...but I kinda expected that...as convenience food often is...

...so...have you ever had savory oatmeal?...

~Have a lovely day!

  1. When I was young my mother introduced me to soup with oatmeal in it as a frugal meal. She said her grandma used to make it that way. It was very tasty. The savour oats with tomato sounds good though these days I find a lot of convenience foods too salty for my taste.

  2. It does seem strange but why not! I do know of padding out minced meats with oats to make it go further just like meatloaf extender and like Joyful's mother's family did with soup.
