Ingredients
-
1 tbsp avocado oil
-
1/2 yellow onion, chopped
-
1 clove fresh garlic, minced
-
1 bell pepper, chopped
-
1/2 tsp ground cumin
-
1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp Himalayan pink salt
-
3 cups canned organic diced tomatoes (no salt added)
-
1/2 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped (reserve a few whole leaves for garnish)
-
1/2 cup fresh flat leaf parsley, chopped (reserve a little whole for garnish).

2 eggs
Directions
Heat oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper and cook until soft (about 3 to 5 minutes)
Add garlic, cumin, paprika, and salt. Stir until combined and fragrant (about 30 seconds)
Add tomatoes with juice if you prefer a thinner sauce. If you prefer a thicker sauce, leave some or all of the juice out. Roughly crush the tomatoes with a spatula. Bring to a simmer, stirring occasionally
Sitr in basil and parsley
Using a spatula or the back of a spoon, create two pockets in the tomato sauce and crack an egg into each pocket. Cover the pan and cook until the eggs are set (about 5 minutes)
