Instructions
Cooking Oatmeal
- Begin by bringing the water or vegetable broth to a boil in a saucepan.
- Stir in the rolled oats and reduce the heat. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the oats are tender and creamy.
Preparing Avocado
- While the oats cook, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it with a fork until smooth and creamy.
Combining Ingredients
- Once the oats are ready, remove them from the heat. Stir in the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- Incorporate the mashed avocado into the oatmeal, blending until fully combined. If you prefer a chunkier texture, leave some avocado pieces intact.
Serving
- Serve the oatmeal warm in bowls, adding your choice of optional toppings for extra flavor and color.

Notes
For optimal flavor, use high-quality, ripe avocados; consider adding a squeeze of lemon juice to prevent browning if storing leftovers.
