Savoury Oat Porridge with Greens and Egg

Step 1

Grate the zucchini (or chop into very thin matchsticks or tiny dice, if you can't be bothered with the grater).

Step 2

Pop the grated zucchini into a small saucepan together with the oats and almond milk, plus half a cup of water. On the stove, bring to boil and then reduce the heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 7 to 10 minutes, until soft and creamy; add a little extra water or milk as you go if you need to thin it out further. *If you are using protein powder as well stir this in while the oats are cooking.

Step 3

During the cooking, sprinkle in the salt and nutritional yeast; taste test and add extra seasoning if desired. Towards the last minute of the cooking, add in the handful of spinach so it wilts into the oats.

Step 4

Poach or fry the egg as you prefer to top your bowl off with.

Step 5

Serve the warm oats in a bowl with the poached egg. If using them, add the pumpkin seeds on top for crunch.
