The Oatmeal Artist has a great pizza porridge recipe, but I wanted to go a bit different. I wanted a quick, on-the-go, savory version. So I went parfait style.
This recipe tastes exactly like a piece of cold cheese pizza, a good piece of cheese pizza-the kind that comes from a pizzeria, not a pizza chain. The spices I added tasted right for me, but feel free to adjust them to your own personal taste.
Ingredients:
½ c quick cooking oats, divided
½ c tomato sauce*, divided
½ c plain yogurt (I used Mountain High Dairy’s whole milk yoghurt**)
¼ t dried basil
¼ t dried oregano
Garlic powder
Onion powder
Sea salt
Directions:
1. Mix together ¼ c oats, ¼ c tomato sauce, and ¼ t oregano. Layer in the bottom of a one cup jar.
2. Add a layer of ¼ c yogurt, topped with a sprinkle of garlic powder and sea salt.
3. Mix together ¼ c oats, ¼ c tomato sauce, and ¼ t basil. Layer in jar.
4. Add another layer of ¼ c yogurt, topped with a sprinkle of onion powder and sea salt.
5. Refrigerate overnight, or for at least eight hours.
*I used home-canned tomato sauce, which can be runnier than store-bought. Adjust liquid amounts as needed.
**Use whole milk yogurt for best flavor. Low-fat or fat-free yogurt will be runnier and have less flavor.
