Do plan to work with the leftovers. In my experience, people will eat
leftover roast meat at an event breakfast, though they might not at home.
Warm it up, slice it and set it out on a platter. Leftover breads and
cooked fruits or desserts will also be eaten.
Others responded that you could try getting whole oat groats (not rolled,
not steel cut) and grind them yourself in order to have a period oatmeal.
Unground oat groats, depending on how long and how much water you add over
the amount needed to actually cook them, can have a texture can ranging from
fluffy pilaf through soupy gruel to pasty porrige. I like the pilaf stage
myself, my husband prefers the farther end of the spectrum, and starts
talking like his mum when he's eating it. So, you don't necessarily have to
grind them, just add more water and cook longer.
(IMO, if you are going for the pasty porridge stage, you might as well use
the cheapest rolled oats, once it's porridge, no one can tell what you
started with anyway. )
