Recipe Instructions

Step 1
In a small pot with a lid, bring the water to a boil with a pinch of salt.
Step 2
Stir in oats and reduce heat to low. Cover and let cook until the desired consistency is reached.
Step 3
Add cinnamon and sugar, and stir.
Step 4
In a small frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat for about 30 seconds. Add Jimmy Dean sausage and cook 8 to 10 minutes until browned, stirring frequently to break up the sausage into small pieces, then drain. Remove the sausage and set aside.
Step 5
Add the greens to the frying pan and saute for about 1 minute or until they begin to wilt. Remove from heat.
Step 6
Add the greens and sausage to your bowl of oatmeal, plus an egg cooked to your liking, and maple syrup to your taste. Serve immediately.
