Instructions

In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the rolled oats, turmeric, and grated ginger. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until the oats are soft and creamy, about 5 minutes.

While the oats are cooking, heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sliced mushrooms, sautéing until the mushrooms are soft and browned, about 5-7 minutes. Stir in the spinach until wilted.

Divide the cooked oatmeal between two bowls. Top each with half of the mushroom and spinach mixture.

Sprinkle each serving with chopped walnuts and flaxseed meal for added texture and omega-3s.

Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Serve warm.
