Breakfast for dinner anyone? I love eating loaded oats for any meal of the day when I'm pressed for time. It's a wholesome meal that will keep you satisfied for hours. This method leaves the oats with a firmer and chewy texture so it's perfect for those that don't like mushy oatmeal (my husband :). Switch up the toppings to keep it interesting! Vegan, GF.
