Preparation

Add chicken stock to a medium saucepot and bring to a boil. Stir in the oats, lower the heat to medium, and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Turn off the heat.

Add the cooked chicken sausage, spinach, cheese, scallions, and salt and pepper to taste. Let sit for 3 to 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the eggs to your liking. Sunny side up or poached is recommended. Season to taste.

When ready to serve, divide the prepared oatmeal between two shallow bowls. Top each with the cooked egg and garnish as desired.

Cook's Notes

To make this low carb, omit the chicken stock and substitute the oatmeal for prepared cauliflower rice.
