- When the oatmeal is cooked to your liking, add the black beans. When heated through, remove from the heat.
- Divide the oatmeal between your bowls. Top with a generous portion of salsa, corn, and slices of avocado. Drizzle with fresh lime juice and desired garnishes. Enjoy!
Notes
- * The chipotle sauce is spicy, so add less if you'd prefer less heat.
Storage
- Store the oatmeal in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- We recommend storing the salsa and avocado separately from the oatmeal and topping it just before eating.

i love this savory oats!
Yummy!! I added a tsp of garlic, onion, and cumin powder and this tasted soooo good!!
Yummy!! Sure this can be a breaky but I just devoured it for dinner. Added in crunchy fried shallots and some vegan sour cream in lieu of avocado (only bc I ate that for breakfast๐คฃ). DELICIOUS
I love this! Made it for dinner because it needed to be quick and easy. It tastes absolutely amazing and I will definitely make it again!
So delicious, I'll definitely make it again
First time making a savory porridge recipe and this one was exquisite.
Very tasty, really enjoyed it. it is a lot of food though. Next time I will be making a smaller portion
This is actually pretty good. As most people are, I was scared to try it but my husband wanted savory for breakfast so we tried this. It was a bit spicy for me but he eats peppers straight and he seasoned it so I donโt think he followed those instructions๐
Oh my goodness!! This oatmeal is amazing! It was so quick and easy. The flavor was exceptional! This breakfast will 100% be made again. If youโre doubting a savory oatmeal, this is your sign to just make it!
This dish sounded gross when I first read it but after reading the reviews I decided to try it out. MY LIFE HAS CHANGED!!!! It is my new FAVOURITE PUL recipe!! Thank you so much!!
Do you think this could work with chickpeas?
One of the best recepis ever!!! Loved it. Easy to make, low budget and nutricious!!! Im all in ๐
Quick and delicious ๐๐ผ
I was a little skeptic to eat this for breakfast, since it got spieces and salsa (i cant handle spieces very well), but i gave it a tryโฆ and i am glad i did.
it was very nourishmend and so tasty. It wasnโt heavy on my stomach at all and it gave me a good amount of energy to start the day.
This was incredible. I added refried beans rather than just beans and I also added slices of mango! My partner and I decided that we want to try eating this at least once a week!
Omg!!! This was delicious! Wanted something different for lunch today, and boy, was I not disappointed ๐คฉ Thought that the texture would maybe throw me off, but no. 100% recommend!
Fabulous flavors! But I have to admit, I made it with quinoa instead of oatmeal ๐คญ
It's a warming dish, that tastes amazing. Just follow the recipe and you'll be mind-blowed!
I am sold on savory oatmeal combos! This recipe was so good and simple to make!
I pre-diced red bell peppers and white onion earlier on the week so I garnished those on it too.
I love this recipe. Itโs such a break from the traditional oatmeal recipes and the flavor is wonderful. Itโs also quick and very uncomplicated to make.
This was a tasty savory breakfast! The o Ku change I made was to use oat groats. I kept the seasoning the same and only adjusted the cooking time.
OMG! I love this recipe I made some changes to it and added a tsp of masala sauce and then, I substituted the avocado with guacamole for a little more flavor, this was the best meal ever!
Made this for breakfast once and it was quite a kick ๐ very spicy! A great idea, though!
the first time i tried savoury oatmeal and i am HERE FOR IT. i especially loved that this recipe included milk because it made the dish feel so creamy and indulgent <3
really good! was hesitant to try savoury oatmeal, but was pleasantly surprised. used all the toppings but swapped the corn for charred bell pepper !
Heaven on a plate! We had this for brunch to warm us up after a rainy walk in London and it did not disappoint. Beautiful flavours and so restorative. We added some sliced green Peppers and mixed seeds for extra crunch. Thank you so much for sharing.
Sadia. GIRL! I made the savory oatmeal Mexican dish and it did not disappoint. I needed a healthy alternative and this is it. Thank you! The chipotle is essential. I added bell peppers, tomatoes avocado to add some veggies.
I love it so much!
I really liked it, I think it's gonna be a go-to recipe from now on. :)
Delicious !
That's just amazing! Never thought savoury oatmeal was a thing)) Turns out it is! Really unusual to feel such creamy texture in combo with salty flavour!
Thank you for recipe!!!
This is the first time that I try a savoury oatmeal, and itโs delicious. Like other reviewers, I was surprised that itโs so creamy, velvety. The texture profile is really enhanced when topping with avocado ๐ฅ ๐๐ป. Very filling!!
I used oat milk plus water, which didnโt bring any strange background flavour. I definitely prefer to use oat milk, as I think it contributes to the creaminess as opposed to watery nut milks. Love the deep umami flavour from the broth (I use an ecologic veggie powder from Renee Voltaire) and the spicy kick from the chili (I used sriracha sauce)
Very good!
This is the first time i tried savory oatmeal, and I was pleasantly surprised!
Such a. Great idea
Not going to lie, was hesitant to even try this. I'm not a fan of savory breakfasts, but I had all the ingredients. And wow! So much flavour in this! Glad I made it :)
This was absolutely delicious! So creamy and warming...I had it for dinner. Thanks for a great recipe
This was amazing, first time trying savoury oatmeal and it did not disappoint! I would recommend starting with half of a bouillon cube and then taste testing it, as mine came out a bit too salty. I made it with unsweetened soy milk instead of almond and that turned out great as well. Definitely will make again (tomorrow)! Thank you for the new oatmeal ideas ๐๐ผ
This is so fantastic; thank you!!!
I've already made it three times. It is so creamy, bursting with flavor, and so filling.
I do avoid a lot of salt, so instead of the bouillon cube and milk + water, I used 1 cup veggie broth + 1 cup oat milk. 1 cup veggie broth (at least the kind I used) is about 1/4 the salt content of 1 bouillon cube. I did make the Mexican spice mix and salsa; they are great additions. All of the flavors she adds here were plenty for me; I did not miss the salt.
I don't know why, but this was creamier than any oatmeal I've ever had, and I make loads of oatmeal. It also saves and reheats well.
People always say, "this breakfast is so filling", but I never really notice a difference. But with this one, it truly is much more filing in all the right ways that most breakfasts. It lasted me a good bit longer than usual.
Thank you again, as always!
I was honestly reticent about trying savoury oatmeal, but man... I've been missing on some genuinely good stuff.
I haven't found diced chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, so I replaced them with a mixture of Sriracha sauce and chopped sweet peppers from a jar. It turned out amazing.
I am truly grateful for your work!
These were amazing flavours and made for a beautiful and tasty bowl to enjoy. This was my second time trying savoury oats and I think it will take some getting used to when I am so used to the sweet varieties! Yet this recipe was very good and I loved the variety of toppings which complimented the oats themselves. I made the PUL salsa for it too which is so good!
I've never tried savoury oatmeal and was a bit sceptical at first but gave this recipe a try this morning - and it was so worth it! Through this fantastic combination of flavours, the oatmeal tastes a bit like rice in my opinion which is super nice. A wonderful way to start the day!
I have a PUL dish several times per week (currently trying all your warm and cozy drinks, love the overnight oats, power bars and one pot pastas <3) so thank you for this creative creation and collection of recipes, Sadia & Team!
I love savory oats, but these are really the best ever. New breakfast/lunch staple!
This recipe is fantastic!!
Hi there! Iโm interested in trying this recipe, but what is adobo sauce? Any substitutions you would recommend? I donโt have vegetable bouillon cubes- could I just use vegetable stock instead?
