8 Savoury Oatmeal Recipes To Switch Up Your Oatmeal Routine

Everyone is familiar with sweet oatmeal for breakfast. Oatmeal itself is a super filling way to start the day, and who doesn’t like a touch of sweet first thing in the morning? But if you’re more of a savoury start to your day kind of person, then have you ever heard of savoury oatmeal? Instead of brown sugar and raisin toppings, you swap in savoury items like fried eggs and bacon! If you’re curious, keep reading and maybe even try out one of these eight delicious savoury oatmeal recipes!

1. Bacon, Cheddar, And Egg

If you’re new to the world of savoury oatmeal or still unsure about trying it out, this recipe is the best place to start because it keeps things simple. It combines all the breakfast favourites from crispy bacon, cheesy cheddar, and a nice fried egg on top, to a bowl of hot oatmeal. It’s simple, yet flavourful and a delicious savoury oatmeal dish!

It also has all the flavour and energy you need to start your day!

6. Portobello Mushroom

Portobello mushrooms are another food item that bring a lot of different options with them.
