SIMPLE SAVORY OATMEAL

Want something savory in the morning, but needs to be quick and simple? This is it. I'd compare it most readily to a deluxe cheese grits recipe, but this has no cheese--and grits (unless instant) are typically a bunch more work. This was an alternative for my 10-year-old who always wanted eggs and sausage for breakfast. Fruits and brown sugar in the oatmeal wasn't cutting it.

I saved this recipe a long while ago but have not tried it so I am adding it here for future use. The use of grains peak my interest. Serving size is just a guess. Optional: Add 1/4 cup chopped cooked chicken in last 2 minutes of cooking.
