Good news for team savory breakfast: Your morning bowl of porridge doesn’t have to be sweet. Oatmeal is a whole grain, after all, and can easily go in a savory direction the way that farro, quinoa, or freekeh can. Here, we stir a little Parmesan into cooked oats and top them with sautéed chicken sausage, grape tomatoes, spinach, and egg. We cook the oats in the microwave for hands-off convenience, and at reduced power to help prevent boil-overs. The recipe serves one and can easily be multiplied to serve more; just move the oatmeal cooking to a large-enough saucepan on the stove.
