I'm so glad I found this recipe. My boyfriend's diabetic and I have Celiac, so it's not always easy to find side dishes that are good for both of us. I tried the oats with herbs version, with a few modifications. I didn't have any green pepper, so I chopped up some green onion instead. I also added a clove of fresh garlic, and some sliced almonds. We both agreed that this tasted very much like stuffing (which we both miss). Thanks for posting such a yummy dish!

A total surprise! I made this all diet friendly, with an egg white and about 1/2 yolk, and used cooking spray instead of butter. Even with those changes it was yummy, I bet the full fat version is better! This would be good with any of the ingredients you might put in fried rice. I'm also envisioning some kind of cheeseburger type thing with ground beef and tomatoes. Thank you for a new way to love my oats!
