That’s right: combining egg, bacon, cheese and avocado in Quaker® Oats in the aptly titled recipe: Egg, Bacon and Avocado Breakfast Oatmeal recipe is a crazy, delicious savory twist on a breakfast classic that is surprisingly & insanely delicious.

Given the opportunity to bring my very best bowl for the Quaker® Oats Bring Your Best Bowl program I knew that I had to do something extraordinary and that is why I came up with this super protein packed breakfast oatmeal recipe that contains everything I love about breakfast all in one. There is Quaker® Oats, an over easy egg, green scallions, cheese, avocado and bacon all married into one dynamic breakfast recipe for a great start to the day.
