Ingredients
  

  • 2 1/4 cup vegetable broth
  • 1 cup old fashioned rolled oats
  • 1/2 cup baked garnet sweet potatoes
  • 2 cups spinach
  • 1/2 cup mung bean sprouts
  • 1/2 cup finely julienned red cabbage
  • 1 cup cooked lentils
  • 1/2 cup kimchi

For the Gochujang Dressing.

For Garnish.

  • 2 tbsp torn up roasted seaweed
  • 2 tbsp chopped scallion greens
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Cook your oats according to package instructions, but replace the water with vegetable broth. Once the oats are cooked, set them aside and allow them to cool for about 10 minutes.
  • While your oats are cooking, add spinach to a pot of boiling water for about 1 minute, until it turns bright green. Remove spinach from pot (do not discard water) and drain, running the spinach under cold water to stop the cooking. Squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible and set aside.
  • Add mung bean sprouts to same pot of boiling water. Cook for about 7 minutes, until they begin to turn translucent and soft. Drain under cold water, pat dry, and set aside.
  • Add your cooked oats in the center of the bowl. Arrange the remaining ingredients around the cooked oats.
  • Make the Gochujang Dressing by whisking all the ingredients together with 1 tablespoon of water. Drizzle over your bowl of oatmeal.
  • Garnish with seaweed, sesame seeds, and chopped scallion greens.
