Can't beat a good oatmeal stout for breakfast. 
That's a pretty small quantity of oats for an oatmeal stout, I usually have at least 10% of the grist. I also prefer my BU:GU around 0.5-0.6 so I'd probably up the hops to about 25-30 IBU.
Looks a ton like a recipe I threw together two weeks ago
10 lbs Pale
.5 lb Chocolate
.5 lb Special B
.5 lb roasted barley
.5 lb flaked oats
1oz Northern Brewer 60 minutes (28 IBU)
I wish I would have bumped the oats up to a full pound, but the taste test when I racked to secondary yesterday was great
