Calling this a recipe is a bit like calling Paris Hilton an actress – a monumental stretch! It’s really more of a list of things to throw together than anything that could concievably be called a Proper Recipe. Despite this, though, it is delicious, nutrirtious and easy as pie to make – and those are three qualities I’d happily have in my food any day. It’s also simultaneously a great source of energy and gloriously comforting, which makes it that astonishingly rare beast; healthy comfort food! So although it lends itself to being the sort of thing you’d usually think of for breakfast, I actually find that I wind up making it for supper more times than I care to admit – especially if I’m alone, as exhausted as I am at the moment, and in need of a little bit of gastronomic TLC…
