Indian Shakshuka
with chickpeas / cauliflower / naan
Shakshuka is a Middle-Eastern dish in which eggs are poached right inside a tomato-based sauce. It makes a great foundation for a variety of flavors and spices, so we couldn't resist making this Indian-inspired version that is served with yogurt and naan.
Smarts: Want to add some greens? Fold in some baby spinach at the same time as the cauliflower.
