Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup rolled oats
- 2 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
- 1 large egg
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 cup fresh spinach (or kale)
- 1 tsp soy sauce or tamari
- 1/4 tsp chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine rolled oats and vegetable broth over medium heat. Stir occasionally until the mixture thickens and bubbles, about 5 minutes.
- Add minced garlic and spinach; cook for another 2-3 minutes until the spinach wilts.
- Meanwhile, bring water to a gentle simmer in a separate pot. Crack an egg into a small bowl before sliding it into the simmering water. Poach for about 3-4 minutes until whites are set but yolk remains runny.
