Bacon & Cheese Savoury Oats (Trust me on this one!)

Itā€™s National Porridge Week and Iā€™m delighted to be teaming up withĀ @flahavansĀ to take on the ā€œBags Full of Potentialā€ Challenge to showcase just how versatile Flahavanā€™s Oats are.

When you hear the word Porridge, most of us automatically picture a delicious steaming hot bowl, drizzled with honey & topped with fruit, but did you know that in Asia, savoury porridge oats are common place? It got me thinking, why it never took off in this part of the world?

I never had much of a sweet tooth and definitely prefer a breakfast thatā€™s savoury so I decided to take influence from Asiaā€™s savoury porridge but use some sharp Cheddar and Smokey Bacon. Trust me, It was incredibly delicious and it didnā€™t feel like it had to be breakfast anymore either. You could easily have this for lunch or dinner and it takes around 10 minutes!

What you need:
serve 2

* 80g Flahavanā€™s Porridge Oats
* 295ml of Chicken/Veg Stock
* 235ml Milk
* 70g Red Mature Cheddar, grated
* 100g Smoked Bacon Lardons
* Salt and Pepper to taste

Serve with:
* A Runny Seasoned Fried Egg
* Sliced Avocado
* SautƩed Spinach
* Chives, Chopped

What to do:

– Fry off the Bacon in a little oil until crisp, set aside
– In the same pot, add the Flahavanā€™s Porridge Oats, Stock/Water, the Milk & stir it up over medium heat until cooked
– Add the cheedar, return back the bacon and mix until cheese is melted (donā€™t forget to reserve some bacon to serve on top later)
– Season well with salt and black pepper to taste (add some butter if youā€™re feeling indulgent)
– Top with the seasoned fried egg, sliced avocado, sautĆ©ed spinach, crisp bacon and chives.
– Enjoy!

MacNean Organic Oats with Irish Mist and Honey @nevenmaguire

 
 


By Neven Maguire

Celebrity Chef

Porridge is one of our most popular breakfasts in the restaurant, and this recipe goes down a treat. On cold winter mornings, it gets you off to a good start and takes no more than 10 minutes to prepare.

Ingredients

  • 100 g (4oz) porridge oats (organic if possible)
  • 300 ml (1/2 pint) whole-fat milk (plus extra if necessary)
  • 4 dsp clear honey
  • 4 dsp irish mist
  • 150 ml (1/4 pint) cream (optional)

Method

  • Simmer the porridge oats and milk together in a saucepan for 8-10 minutes, until the mixture is slightly thickened, stirring all the time. It is important that the porridge has a nice soft dropping consistency so add a little more milk if you think that it needs it.
  • To serve, spoon the porridge into warmed bowls. Drizzle each one with some honey and Irish mist and finally, serve with cream if you wish.

  • Apple Porridge Scones šŸŽā 
    ā 
    This gorgeous seasonal take on the classic scone combines the wholesome goodness of oats and the sweet, tangy flavour of apples, and we think they are the perfect autumnal mid-morning treat!ā 
    ā 
    We especially like to serve them with a dollop of our Blackberry Jam, and some of the fresh berries from the brambles too šŸ˜‹ā 
    ā 
    Ingredients:ā 
    – 2 cups all-purpose flourā 
    – 1 cup rolled oatsā 
    – 1 large apple, peeled, cored, and dicedā 
    – 1 cup buttermilkā 
    – 1/4 cup brown sugarā 
    – 1/4 cup unsalted butter, meltedā 
    – 2 tsp baking powderā 
    – 1/2 tsp baking sodaā 
    – 1/2 tsp saltā 
    – 1/2 tsp ground cinnamonā 
    – 1/4 tsp ground nutmegā 
    – 1 eggā 
    ā 
    Methodology:ā 
    – Preheat your oven to 220Ā°C.ā 
    – Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.ā 
    – In a bowl, mix the oats with the buttermilk and let them soak for about 10 minutes to soften.ā 
    – In a large mixing bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Add the brown sugar to the flour mixture and combine well.ā 
    – Stir the melted butter and egg into the oat and buttermilk mixture.ā 
    – Fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined and gently fold in the diced apples.ā 
    – Lightly flour a clean surface and turn the dough out onto it.ā 
    With floured hands, gently shape the dough into a round, about 1-inch thick and using your hands shape into about 8 wedges.ā 
    – Place the wedges on the prepared baking sheet, leaving some space between each.ā 
    – Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes or until the scones are golden brown.ā

Coconut Cashew Latte Smoothie @lifeway_kefir

Lifeway Foods, Inc.

Coconut Cashew Latte Smoothie

Todayā€™s good mood is sponsored by coffee! Sit back, relax, and enjoy your morning with every sip of our Coconut Cashew Latte Smoothie. Rich in protein and probiotics, this aromatic blend of cold brew, Coconut Honey Whole Milk Kefir, cashews, and toasted coconuts is sure to enhance your day and support your gut with Lifeway Kefir.

The Benefits of Cultured Dairy for Better Health:

Research continues to show the importance of eating healthy foods, including cultured dairy such as kefir, for better gut health, a strong immune system, and to support the microbiome. Fermented foods like kefir hold important value in this line of research due to the link between the gut-brain axis and overall health. Specifically, kefir has been shown to help diversify the microbiome, improve digestion, reduce inflammation, support healthier blood sugar levels, and improve satiety since the bioavailable protein it triggers the release of GLP-1.

Lifeway Kefir also contains a variety of nutrients that are vital for healthy bones and overall health: vitamin D3, K, calcium, and vitamin B12. Along with our kefir, we also offer our artisan-made Farmer Cheese, a creamy high-protein cheese made with live and active cultures to support a healthy microbiome thatā€™s easy to spread and contains no added salt for optimal heart-health benefits.

Servings: 1 – 2

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup cold brew coffee
  • 1/2 cup Organic Whole Milk Coconut Honey Kefir
  • 1 serving vanilla protein powder
  • 1/4 cup soaked cashews
  • 2 tbsp shredded coconut
  • 1 frozen banana
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • pinch of sea salt
  • handful of ice cubes

Directions

  1. Place all ingredients into a high-powered blender. Blend on high until smooth, or until desired consistency is reached.
