So…. Any Top Chef fans?!?! Just me? That’s cool. I’m obsessed.

Anyways….  last week’s episode featured a spice mixture I had never seen before- Ras el hanout. It’s from North Africa but is also generally associated with Morocco.  I thought it would be a great new ingredient to try and I had most of the spices that create the mixture. But I didn’t want to stop there with trying something new…. I’ve been dreaming of creating lots of savory oatmeal dishes. There is something about the creaminess of oatmeal that other grains just cannot replicate… and while I usually enjoy oatmeal as a breakfast, I decided to challenge myself to make a savory dinner dish.  Enter Savory Moroccan Spiced Oatmeal!
