Vegan Brunch Recipes: Savory Oatmeal for Cold Mornings

December 8, 2014

I am perpetually cold during the winter months, which means I exchange my salads and cold cereals for hearty, warm meals. While I would rather sit in bed under a mound of blankets than actually get up and do anything, my roommate recently taught me how to make a delicious savory oatmeal that coaxes me out of bed each morning. It is made with a combination of miso paste, which contains all essential amino acids, probiotics, and boosts your immune system, and hot chili paste. It’s the perfect way to start any cold morning and can even be eaten for a hearty dinner.
