Green Shakshuka
Give traditional Shakshuka a twist by going green! Eggs are cooked on a bed of green veggies including loads of fresh spinach, zucchini, and leeks, and finished with fresh herbs, tangy feta, and avocado. Served up on grilled sourdough for a delicious and vibrant breakfast or brunch!
It's giving St. Patty's Day vibes if you ask me!

Process
Note, these instructions are written assuming the standard serving size, since you have modified the number of servings, these steps may need to be modified for best results
- Begin heating the butter and EVOO in a 12” skillet set to medium heat. Once melted, add the leeks, pepper flakes, and a good pinch of salt. Stir and cook 5 minutes. Add the zucchini, green onions, and a good pinch of salt and cracked pepper. Stir and continue to cook for 3 minutes. Add the spinach and season liberally with salt and pepper. Cover the skillet and let the spinach cook down until wilted. Stir in the fresh parsley & lemon juice and continue to cook for another minute or so.
- Heat up a grill pan and brush both sides of each piece of bread with EVOO. Grill both sides for about 2 minutes until crispy and grill marks are evident.
- Make 4 small wells in the pan and carefully crack in the eggs. Season each egg with salt, pepper, and pepper flakes. Cover the pan and cook for approximately 5 minutes or until whites have set and yolks are at desired doneness.
- Place the skillet on a wire cooling rack. Garnish with fresh chopped chives, cilantro, and crumbled feta cheese. For service, serve one egg and green shakshuka over a grilled piece of toast along with some sliced avo and additional herbs. ENJOY
