Ingredients:

1 Tablespoon Olive Oil

1 Onion, diced

1 Red Bell Pepper, diced

1 Green Bell Pepper, diced

2 Cloves Garlic, minced

2 Cups Spinach, chopped

1 Teaspoon Smoked Paprika

1 Teaspoon Ground Cumin

1/4 Teaspoon Cayenne Pepper

1 Can (14.5 ounces) Organic Diced Tomatoes (We like Fire-roasted!!)

4 Tablespoons of just better.® fiber 

4-6 Eggs

Salt & Pepper

Fresh Parsley, chopped, for garnish 

Instructions:

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper, and cook until onions are translucent —about 5-7 minutes.

Add garlic, smoked paprika, ground cumin, and cayenne pepper, and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Add diced tomatoes and just better.® fiber to the skillet and stir to combine. 

Bring the mixture to a simmer, and let it cook for about 10 minutes.

Add chopped spinach to the skillet, and stir to combine. Cook for another 2-3 minutes or until the spinach has wilted. 

With a spoon or ladle, make wells in the sauce large enough to hold an egg, spacing them out evenly. 

Crack open each egg into the wells in the sauce that you created. 

Season with salt and pepper to taste.

Cover the skillet with a lid and let the eggs poach until the whites are set and the yolks are cooked to your liking, about 5-7 minutes. 

Remove the skillet from the heat, and garnish with chopped parsley. 

Serve Shakshouka hot with bread, pita, or your favorite whole grains.
