  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then reduce heat and simmer for 3-4 minutes, or until oats are tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
  3. Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheese until melted and creamy.
  4. If using, stir in the chopped bell peppers.
  5. Serve immediately and enjoy your warm, cheesy, and savory oats!
