>oatmeal instead of rice/pasta

So, is this a good idea ck?

Gonna cook oatmeal with some spinach and carrots in it, and eat it with some salmon

I guess it'll be something like pic related but green. Will it be shit?

Why would you even do that?

Salmon with oatmeal, yeah maybe, just maybe if its seasoned right and you want a little fish with some nice oatmeal

but spinach and carrots.

The texture will be a little different like a risotto but I can't imagine it being BAD.

Use steel cut oatz, I think it can be done.
Those chewy nuggets are so nice.

Texture would be... Unusual. Could work, report back on how it went. We might have something we could market to /fit/

You can mix it, but if you want it to be more photo-friendly, you could make thin oat pancakes, wilt the spinach, grill the carrots, and make some sort of sandwich with it.

Cut it in half diagonally, put one piece on top and offset from the other on a plate, sprinkle some greens around it, and have yourself a delicious lunch!

Or you can just mix it all together in a bowl to see if the flavors and textures are OK together.

Not OP but is there any way to make my oats less bland? I add peanut butter, nuts, honey and even some sugar and it still tastes like eating cardboard with a better texture.

I'd put some fruits but I don't have any at the moment.

yeah, I think she is right. I would recommend a courser oat like steel cut oats or irish oats (same thing).

Oats aren't bland at all.

I have tried to make different stuff with oatmeal and it always just ends up tasting like I threw shit in with my breakfast oatmeal. It's going to taste like oatmeal and there is no avoiding it, but if you like that it will work OP.

Two things matter if you want taste from oats. One is the quality of oats that you buy. /ck/ recommends steel cut oats constantly because they're the least fucked-with when processed for groceries.

Another thing that might help is lightly toasting them in the oven before using them. Maillard's reaction will make your oats taste yummy.
