30 Days of Oatmeal: Green Pea Risotto

I've read a lot about risotto, a dish made of rice cooked in broth. In an effort to build more savory oatmeal recipes into my repertoire, I tried to recreate it using spices and green peas.

I'd call this a moderately successful recipe. It was good, but not amazing. Cooking the oats in vegetable broth instead of water would make this far more tasty.

Ingredients:

1/2 c quick cooking oats
1 c water
1/4 t garlic powder
1/4 t onion powder
1/4 t oregano
1/2 t parsley flakes
1/8 t ground black pepper
Sea Salt
1 c frozen green peas, thawed.

Directions:

1. In a small sauce pan, bring oats, water, and spices to a boil. Reduce heat to medium low.
2. Once oats reach desired consistency, stir in green peas to warm.
3. Transfer oats to a bowl and enjoy!
