Shakshuka

A healthy Mediterranean dish that can be served up any time of day! You will LOVE the way this makes your house smell! A flavorful tomato sauce with slightly runny egg yolks scooped up by warm pita bread makes this dish so rich and satisfying. It’s as fun as it is to eat as it is to say!

Turn up heat to medium high and gently squeeze the tomatoes between your hands to crush the tomatoes ( make sure you add in the juice from the can as well)
