Ingredients

  • 8 count eggs
  • 1 can no-salt-added crushed tomatoes (28 oz)
  • 1 count yellow onion
  • 1 count red bell pepper
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 3 oz feta cheese
  • 1 count crusty bread
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Steps

  1. Dice the onion and bell pepper and mince the garlic.
  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook onion and pepper 6-7 minutes until soft, then add garlic, cumin and paprika for 1 minute.
  3. Pour in the crushed tomatoes, season with salt, and simmer 5-7 minutes until slightly thickened.
  4. Make 8 small wells in the sauce and crack an egg into each. Cover and cook on medium-low 8-10 minutes, until the whites and yolks are firm and the eggs reach 160°F.
  5. Sprinkle with feta and serve straight from the pan with thick slices of bread for scooping.
  6. Picky eaters can have plain eggs with a slice of bread.
  7. Make ahead: dice the onion and pepper and make the sauce up to 2 days ahead, then reheat and cook the eggs fresh.

On the side: Garlicky green beans (10 min)

12 oz green beans

  1. Trim the green beans. Cook in a skillet with a splash of olive oil over medium-high heat, 6 to 8 minutes, until bright and just tender.
  2. Stir in a minced garlic clove for the last minute and season with salt.
