Savory Oatmeal for breakfast

I was skeptical, but now I'm sold.

1/3 c. old-fashioned oats
2/3 c. water

--cook as normal--

drizzle with olive oil, a generous pinch of sea salt and a generous pinch of coarse ground pepper.

I was thinking how nice a grating of sharp cheddar would be on this...

hmm. i'm also skeptical. will have to try. i suppose since eggs are savory, and i eat them, i should be able to eat savory oatmeal! i'll try it. michael would probably LOVE it with sharp cheddar & hot sauce. hmm. i am thinking this over. hmm.

i need to get over the whole "breakfast=sweet" equation!

the skepticism creeps in....but if i can get past it, i think some parmesan would probably go nicely, too. :)
