Notes
- Substitute chopped chives, baby arugula or cherry tomatoes for the green onions.
- Cook oats in vegetable or chicken broth instead of water.
Bring 2 cups (500 mL) water to a boil in medium saucepan. Stir in oats and ¼ tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper. Reduce heat to low. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 15 to 18 minutes or until tender. Stir in 1 tbsp (15 mL) butter.
Meanwhile, melt remaining butter in non-stick skillet set over medium heat; break eggs into skillet. Cover and cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until eggs whites are just set for sunny-side up. (Alternatively, cook to desired doneness.)
Divide oatmeal among 4 bowls. Sprinkle with cheese and green onion. Top each serving with fried egg. Season with remaining salt and pepper.
