I'm up at 04:00 most days because that's when my body moves and my mind
switches on. Since I won't be able to go back to sleep I might as well
be up and doing. And sometimes for supper I'll have a nice bowl of (a
big latte cup, really) of oatmeal or bacon 'n eggs ... which most think
is breakfast fare.

It was tasty on any sort of day.

This is a breakfast favourite which can be done for any meal and for
one or two by adjusting the quantities. Doubles well for largers groups
if necessary.
