Oh damn I never knew you could do oats like this. My wife recently went on an oatmeal kick and did overnight oats with peanut butter and milk but I had a real hard time with the texture/consistency of it.
It took me a moment to get used to it, because I had the traditional upbringing with oatmeal = cinnamon, sugar, etc. But it’s not that different from mashed potatoes, polenta, or rice. I already had the pilaf recipe that was a favorite “go with anything” side dish, so I tried that first and stuck with it.

I started by putting egg and olives on mine. Seemed breakfast-ish. Chili paste and egg and pork fu is great on oats too.
I honestly can’t do oatmeal with peanut butter. Every time I’ve tried it, it makes me gag. Not sure what it is, since I enjoy both separately.
That’s about the reaction I had. It would make me physically sick to my stomach even though I love peanut butter and don’t mind oats in most things.
