Ingredients
  

1 cup rolled oats

2 cups vegetable broth

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

1 cup spinach, chopped

1 medium tomato, diced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

Salt and black pepper to taste

1 avocado, sliced

2 poached eggs (optional)

Fresh herbs (chives or cilantro) for garnish

Instructions
 

In a medium saucepan, bring the vegetable broth to a boil over medium heat.

    Add the rolled oats to the boiling broth, reduce heat to low, and simmer for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are creamy and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

      In a separate skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

        Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute until fragrant.

          Add the chopped spinach and diced tomato to the skillet, cooking until the spinach is wilted and the tomatoes are softened, about 2-3 minutes.

            Sprinkle in the smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper, mixing well to combine.

              Scoop the cooked oatmeal into a serving bowl, top with the spinach-tomato mixture.

                If using, gently place the poached eggs on top of the bowl.

                  Finish by adding sliced avocado and a sprinkle of fresh herbs for garnish.

                      - Presentation Tips: Serve the oatmeal bowl in deep bowls, arranging the spinach and tomato mixture attractively on top, along with the avocado slices and egg. A drizzle of olive oil or a sprinkle of chili flakes on top can elevate the visual appeal even further!
