While I love certain flavors of instant oatmeal, I’ve gone through all of them and every morning’s been feeling more and more like a boring dystopia.

Prefer savory to cut down sugar. All the egg + microwave suggestions are welcome (but are they any good?)

    Great suggestions. I used to do a “decadent” oatmeal that had a lot of what you described in it and more. Then switched to savory oatmeal with eggs olives onions etc. But these days all of that is too much work- I’m a grab and go person especially in the morning.

    Lately the packaged instant oatmeal with just hot water and cream hit HARD on the nostalgia taste buds...like I’m fully aware of how sad it is/seems but there’s just something to the plain consistency and some of those classic mass factory produced flavors. Idk. Now I need a change..

      Fair enough!

      If you like grab and go, I'd suggest doing some meal prep breakfast burritos! They freeze great, and then just need to be microwaved in the morning. Takes a couple of hours to prep, like, 20+. You might also be able to find some local mexican restaurant/market where you can buy them too if you need those few hours.
