Simple Savory Oats

Growing up my Grandmother would often make Haleem, a savory Persian Porridge with left over chicken or stew meat from whatever Koresh (stew) she made that week. Since then, I've drawn a loving to salty savory oatmeal–it's a wonderful quick, cheap and wholesome meal for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I usually make my savory oats simple with rolled oats, salt and pepper. Sometimes I add nutritional yeast, Za'atar or saffron. Sometimes I put a poached egg on it. Enjoy!
