Beef Shakshuka
This North African dish features eggs cracked into a spicy red pepper sauce. We beef it up for extra flavor and protein.

- 4 eggs
- 2 tbsp. fresh parsley or cilantro (chopped)
- ¼ tsp. salt

Instructions
- Slice and remove seeds from peppers. Finely dice shallot and peppers.
- Heat a large pan over medium heat. Sauté peppers and shallot, for 3-4 minutes; stir occasionally. Remove ingredients from pan and set aside.
