While you can find fresh rhubarb, add these simple oatmeal bowls to your breakfast list! I like to use steel cut oats, but any will work!
Ingredients
1tablespoonunsalted butter
1cupfresh strawberries, quartered
1cupchopped rhubarb
2-3tablespoonsbrown sugar
1 ½cupssteel cut oats, simmered

Honey, garnish (optional)
Instructions
Cook steel cut oats according to directions by simmering them in water (usually 4-5 cups for 1 1/2 cups oats) until they are tender. Or you can use my <a href=”https://www.crunchtimekitchen.com/how-to-make-instant-oatmeal/” target=”_blank”>made in advance oatmeal method</a> for really easy prep.
In a medium pot, melt butter over medium heat. Then add rhubarb and strawberries. Stir together.
Add sugar and cook mixture for about 5 minutes until the rhubarb is breaking down but there are still some chunks. Remove from heat.
Divide oatmeal between bowls and spoon a generous amount of the strawberry rhubarb mixture on top. Serve with a drizzle of honey or fresh mint.
