The Mother of All Whole Oat Groats Questions

F@cking Oat Groats! How do they work?
I have four pounds of whole oat groats stored in my kitchen. Usually I prepare them by cooking them for a half an hour in the pressure cooker.
I like my whole oat groats. But I want to work on the relationship, to take things to the next level.
So what are some creative and fun things I can do with my supply of oat groats? How do you like to prepare them? Breakfast ideas are always welcome of course, but if you were using this as a side dish like brown rice, what sorts of foods would complement its taste?
Many thanks in advance.

Totally winging it here (I don't have two oat groats to rub together, personally)... but what if you made an oat groat risotto with beef broth, cream and sage?

Cook 'em al dente and use 'em as the primary grain in a birchermuesli - I did this a few months ago (I made mine gingerbread-flavored)... the chewy, hearty oats, the creamy dairy and the fruit are AWESOME together. Also, a bowl of that stuff will keep you full for like five days.
