Sweet Potato and Cumin Oatmeal
This is oatmeal turned savory, with mashed sweet potato stirred right into the pot for sweetness and body and a pinch of cumin for warmth. A microwaved sweet potato keeps the hands-on time short, and a finishing drizzle of olive oil makes it taste rich without any added sugar. It's a cozy, filling breakfast that leans on whole foods instead of a sugar bowl.
