This Delicious Recipe Turns Leftover Sweet Potatoes Into a Fiber-Packed Oatmeal in Minutes - Well+Good

The first few days after Thanksgiving are the best time of the year for leftovers—and I won’t let anyone tell me otherwise. While most day-after dishes are best-suited for a savory sandwich or casserole at lunch, the sweet, rich taste of sweet potato casserole is just begging to get repurposed for a hearty breakfast. This year, Chef Daven Wardynski, director of food and beverage at Omni Amelia Island Resort in Florida, has exact instructions for what to do with leftover sweet potato casserole: Make it into a delicious, fiber-packed oatmeal breakfast.

Oatmeal’s one of those foods that land a spot on every dietitian’s grocery list, for good reason. A half-cup serving of oats contains five grams of protein, one gram of healthy monosaturated fatty acids, and four grams of dietary fiber, including a unique form of soluble fiber known as beta-glucan which is great for satiety and heart health. Pair that with sweet potatoes—which contain another four grams of fiber, skin-healthy vitamin A, and plenty of potassium—and you’ve got a post-Thanksgiving dish that’s juggling all sorts of nutritional roles.

The thing is, you could definitely just swirl sweet potato casserole and oatmeal together, and wind up with a pretty yummy breakfast. But below, Chef Wardynski shares a recipe that adds plenty of gourmet touches to make the dish extra-special. Depending on how much time you want to spend in the kitchen, you can skip out on the streusel topping and just whip up the oats. It’s up to you, chef.
