Try this for one...

2-1/2 cup Water
1/4 tsp Sea Salt
2 Tb Olive Oil
1 Tb Butter, softened
4 cloves Garlic, finely minced
1/2 cup chopped Walnuts-Baker's Pieces
1 cup Finely chopped fresh parsley
2 tsp Basil (Imported)
1 cup Grated Parmesan Cheese
1/2 cup Sliced Black Olives
1/2 cup Soy Bacon Bits (optional)

Boil water with salt. Add groats, cover and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove from heat and leave pan covered for about 5 minutes, then fluff with fork.

Mix butter, olive oil, garlic and walnuts together. Separately combine parsley, basil, cheese and olives. Add butter mixture to groats, then add the parsley mixture. Salt to taste. Toss and serve. Sprinkle soy bacon on top, if desired.

Yield: 6 servings
