Fiber-rich oats are a breakfast staple, but Food Network Kitchen proves they can do so much more. Eat your way through a year of oats, from summery snacks like blueberry-oat ice pops to an oat risotto perfect for a cold-weather dinner.

Eating black-eyed peas and greens on New Year's Day is thought to bring good fortune for the rest of the year (thanks to the peas' resemblance to coins and the greens' to folded dollar bills). Combine these with steel-cut oats for a dish that's packed with fiber, protein and, hopefully, a bit of luck!

These cookies don't taste "healthy," which makes them the perfect way to avoid breaking any eat-better resolutions. Toasting the oats before adding them to the batter helps maintain their chewy texture, even after baking.

This healthy, green bowl of oatmeal is the perfect breakfast for St. Patrick's Day (or any day). Protein-rich yogurt and antioxidant-packed matcha green tea will give you a boost of energy and keep you fueled for the day ahead.
