While I haven’t had oatmeal in a hot minute, I did, for a while, eat it every day for breakfast. I would always make mine with milk, or water, depending on the day, and enjoyed adding cinnamon, banana and brown sugar.
I follow Camilla Lorentzen on Instagram, and her wife as well. The two of them make for an adorable couple, and Camilla happens to be a personal trainer who often shares tips and helpful knowledge regarding recipes, wellness, fitness, etc. She recently shared her own personal recipe for her famous Oatmeal, and I was shocked to learn she incorporates an egg into her oatmeal, a concept I had never heard of prior to seeing her reel.
Naturally, I had to check Google, and lo and behold, adding an egg to oatmeal is apparently recommended. Check out the following information from myrecipes.com.
“It’s fair to say that oatmeal is boring. After all, oatmeal doesn’t exactly have a cult following, unlike avocados, bacon, or cold brew. Heck, even sweet potatoes have a fan club. As for oatmeal? People aren’t lining up for it like it’s an avocado bar. But don’t get me wrong—oatmeal’s plain jane style is actually a blessing. There is so much room for all your favorite toppings and fixings. Yet, if you want to make it much better, you should cook an egg into your oatmeal. Hear me out. You probably already know that eggs are used to add flavor, richness, and texture to dishes. Classic breakfast foods, like pancakes and French toast, would be nothing without them. It’s the same deal with oatmeal. When you mix in a whisked egg, your depressing bowl of goop will transform into fluffy goodness. This trick will also give you an extra protein boost. You’ll stay nice and full until lunch, ensuring that you’ll last through all those meetings without your stomach grumbling,” the web page states.
The more you know, my friends.
