Super Oatmeal


On days that I feel like making a special breakfast, I'll whip up some polenta with cheese and sausage.  After eating that dish a few times, I wondered how it would be to make a savory oatmeal dish.  Remembering that I always love how bacon or sausage tastes when maple syrup drips down on it from my pancakes or waffles, I decided to try out this hybrid oatmeal:  Stovetop-cooked oats topped with breakfast sausage, maple syrup, jack and cheddar cheese, and a sprinkling of freshly cracked black pepper.  It turned out to be the perfect balance of sweet and savory.
