How to Prepare Mediterranean Savory Oatmeal with Millet [Vegan]

Start by soaking oat groats and millet in separate bowls overnight. Rinse and drain.
In the morning, when you start to make the porridge, put rolled oats into a small bowl and add just enough warm water to cover them. Set aside.
Next, bake the tomatoes in the oven at 390°F for about 20 minutes until the tomatoes are blistered and beginning to burst.
While the tomatoes are in the oven, in a small saucepan, simmer soaked oat groats and chopped onion for 3 minutes. Then, throw in millet and add water to almost level with the ingredients. Cover with lid and bring to boil. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Next, add rinsed baby spinach on top of the other ingredients and cover with a lid. Simmer for 1 minute and then turn off the heat.
Now it’s time to stir in crushed garlic, chopped fresh thyme, soaked rolled oats, tomato paste, and a pinch of salt and pepper.
Finally, go in a few oven-baked tomatoes. Crush them and mix into porridge. And add hot water if the porridge is too dry.
Garnish with a few more oven-baked tomatoes, some fresh thyme, sunflower seeds, and sesame seeds.
