    Not sure I'd like OatMeat but oatmeal is great, and eggs a favorite. Eggs win for me, just because I feel like they have more nutrition per calorie, and I tend to get hungry faster with oatmeal.

    Instant oatmeal is horrifying, much closer to glue than food, but 5 minute oats are nice, as is the steel cut stuff. Like this either warm with cinnamon/nuts/dried cherries, or cold with yogurt and dry fruits and nuts.

    Eggs and home fries, or eggs and toast, or eggs and toast and avocado, or omelette with vegetables.

    Have even done stuff with eggs and oatmeal both, breakfast bread or muffins or pancakes.

    Either one. But the oatmeal has to be steel-cut or regular rolled oats--I'm not keen on instant oatmeal, and the packets you just add water to leave me hungry in an hour.

    I usually have two eggs and four egg whites along with either oatmeal or pinto beans and hatch red chile...so my answer would be:

    I have oatmeal on weekdays with some diced fruit (usually apple) and milk.

    On weekends I loved a poached egg on top of some avocado toast with sriracha or some chanterelle toast. My nerves can't handle poaching eggs on a weekday.

    Oatmeal smells SOOOOOOOOO good. I would love to love it. I can't get past the texture.

    Both together! My staple breakfast is oatmeal with berries and a teaspoon of honey, then an egg + 3 egg whites. Protein and carbs :D

    I eat oatmeal more often because it's more convenient and a good source of complex carbs. When I have more time at home I'll make an omelette.

    I clicked this thinking "What the ? is oatmeat?"

    ETA: I eat overnight oats every morning with a boiled egg on the side.

    Oatmeal, eggs, yogurt, bacon; whatever feeds my ravenous metabolism.

    Avocado toast with 1/4 cup egg substitute is my go-to breakfast.

    I have been eating egg muffins and now back to oatmeal, which is not keeping me full like it used to. But when I eat oatmeal with 2 boiled eggs, I stay full. What is going on?

    BOTH!- I eat eggy oats that way I get my carbs and my protein. If I eat them separate I feel that I eat way too much.

    I generally have oatmeal in some form during the week. I make overnight oatmeal or muesli that I can take with me to work. I will have eggs on the weekend, although I have made breakfast sandwiches that I can have during the week. I like both and switch off.

    Oatmeal holds you longer, eggs are great but the sodiym content in an egg is high. Try Ezekiel cereal or Kodiak Cakes pancakes. I make ahead and freeze.

    I looove oatmeal but need the protien in eggs, so I kinda only eat oatmeal intermittently through the week depending on what carbs I have a taste for. Once autumn hits warm cinnamon & apple oatmeal will happen every day B-)
