sharing oats upma as i have got many requests to share oats recipes. i will try to add some more oats recipes.

the recipe is simple and gets done within 30 minutes including both the preparation and cooking. i prepare this oats upma the way i make rava upma. i have added some finely chopped veggies and i do suggest to add them as they give a good texture and of course a nutritional boost to the upma. you can add your choice of veggies. i usually stick to the trio of carrots, french beans and green peas.

oats upma can be served plain, drizzled with some lime or lemon juice or also served with a side of coconut chutney. this upma also makes for a healthy tiffin box snack.
