Time 20m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 ½ cups water
salt to taste
1 cup uncooked instant or quick cooking oatmeal
¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon white sugar
1 tablespoon canola oil
1/4 (1-pound) package Jimmy Dean Premium Pork Sausage
1 cup lightly sauteed spinach
1 large egg
2 teaspoons maple syrup

Steps:

  • In a small pot with a lid, bring the water to a boil with a pinch of salt.
  • Stir in oats and reduce heat to low. Cover and let cook until the desired consistency is reached.
  • Add cinnamon and sugar, and stir.
  • In a small frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat for about 30 seconds. Add Jimmy Dean sausage and cook 8 to 10 minutes until browned, stirring frequently to break up the sausage into small pieces, then drain. Remove the sausage and set aside.
  • Add the greens to the frying pan and saute for about 1 minute or until they begin to wilt. Remove from heat.
  • Add the greens and sausage to your bowl of oatmeal, plus an egg cooked to your liking, and maple syrup to your taste. Serve immediately.
