How to Prepare Savory Citrus Arugula Steel Cut Oatmeal [Vegan]

  1. Add water and salt to a large pot over medium-high heat. When water comes to a low boil, add oats and zucchini and reduce to a simmer.
  2. While oats are cooking, prepare orange by cutting in half, running a paring knife along each edge and against the pith. You should be able to easily scoop out the segments and set them aside in a bowl for later. See here for step-by-step photos. Hang on to the orange skin as you will use this for zesting later.
  3. After about 15 -20 minutes, or when more of the liquid has absorbed in the pot, add orange zest, olive oil, lime juice, and chopped garlic. Then stir. Add more salt if desired.
  4. Once oatmeal has reached the desired consistency, remove from heat and transfer to four or five bowls.
  5. Top each with a bit of orange segments, pomegranate arils, and a small handful of arugula.
