How to Make Shakshuka with Red Peppers and Goat Cheese
Shakshuka is an Eastern Mediterranean dish of eggs poached in a flavorful tomato sauce. It’s the ultimate all-purpose meal—it’s quick and easy to make, it’s great for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, and it all comes together in one pan for minimal cleanup. This can be a whole meal on its, or you could serve it with a side salad or whole wheat pita to sop up the sauce.

Step-By-Step Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 425 degrees.
- Heat the olive oil over medium-high heat in a large oven-proof skillet. Add the onion and sauté for about 3 minutes, until translucent. Add the garlic, red pepper and spices and sauté until the red pepper is soft (about 2 minutes).
- Add the crushed tomatoes and the spinach. Sauté for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat.
- Using a wooden spoon, create 8 wells in the pan of veggies. Crack an egg into each well. Put the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for about 7 minutes or until the eggs are set.
- Remove from the oven and crumble the goat cheese on top while still warm. Cut into 4 equal slices (with 2 eggs each) to serve.
