Ingredients
  

  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/4 cup dry quick-cooking steel cut oats
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons shredded white cheddar cheese
  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil divided
  • 1/4 cup diced red pepper
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped onions
  • 1 large egg
  • Chopped walnuts optional for garnish
  • Sliced green onions optional for garnish
  • Other optional toppings such as sautéed mushrooms and spinach

Instructions
 

  • In a small pot, bring 3/4 cup of water to a boil. Stir in the oats and a pinch of salt. Reduce heat to low and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and have absorbed most of the water.

  • While the oats are cooking, heat half a teaspoon of coconut oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add the diced red pepper and chopped onions, sautéing until they are soft and slightly caramelized, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
  • In the same skillet, add the remaining coconut oil and crack the egg into the skillet. Fry the egg to your desired doneness, seasoning with a pinch of salt and pepper.
