Savory Oat Rice

By JuanitaH

We have finally found a way to make raw rice! The secret is not to use rice at all, but raw, soaked oat groats. You can buy the raw oat groats in bulk or bagged packaging. They look just like brown rice. Soak them for 24 hours and follow the recipe! It is amazing how much this tastes like a rice dish, and satisfies just like rice too. However, the germinated oats give you a ton of energy, which of course cooked rice does not. The men in my family love this recipe as it is high in protein!

Ingredients

• 1 c oat groats
• 1 c button mushrooms, diced
• 3 tbs olive oil
• 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
• 1/4 tsp sea salt
• Savory herbs (thyme, marjoram, sage, or oregano, etc..)
• 1 Hass avocado
