Description

Tomato Basil Overnight Oats combine savory Mediterranean flavors with the comforting texture of steel-cut oats. This hearty, make-ahead breakfast brings together creamy tomato, fresh basil, and a touch of garlic for a bold, nourishing morning meal.


Ingredients

Scale

¾ cup tomato puree

1 ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk

1 ½ cup steel cut oats

2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

¼ cup fresh basil, finely chopped

1 garlic clove

Salt and pepper to taste

2 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated


Instructions

1. In a pot, add olive oil and sauté garlic on low-medium heat.

2. Once garlic becomes fragrant and slightly golden, add almond milk and tomato puree.

3. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil while stirring.

4. Add steel cut oats and chopped basil, then reduce heat to low.

5. Let it simmer for about 60 minutes or until most liquid is absorbed.

6. Season with salt and pepper to taste.

7. Transfer to jars or containers and chill overnight.

8. Before serving, reheat gently and top with grated parmesan.

Notes

Make this vegan by omitting the parmesan or using a plant-based alternative.

Let the oats cool before refrigerating to preserve texture.

Store in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
