The great thing about oatmeal is you can change the taste easily. Savory, sweet, spiced, aromatic, creamy, chewy, whatever you want.

My go-to is oatmeal with milk and pepper, but some days I want some aged cheddar, or smoked cheddar (mmmm!). Frozen wild blueberries/wineberries for a winter treat. Tumeric, ginger, cinnamon and honey if I'm getting sick. A fried egg and hot sauce if it's a lazy sunday.

Savoury oatmeal might be my wife's top-rated thing that I brought to the relationship.
