Drain and rinse red peppers and add to onions with vinegar and capers. Pulse 8 to 10 more times, until ingredients are chopped but small pieces still remain. (Can be done up to 5 days ahead)

Make

  1. Heat oven to 425F / 218C. Place mushrooms onto a sheet pan and brush mushrooms with some oil. Roast for 10 to 15 minutes, until tender.

  2. Heat a nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Add oil and then spinach (no need to defrost it) with some salt. Saute spinach until defrosted. Pour off excess water and return pan to heat. Continue cooking until spinach is dry and tender, 2 to 3 minutes more.

  3. Remove pan from oven and turn on the oven's broiler. 

  4. Fill mushrooms with baba ganoush and spinach. Use a spoon to hollow out a "nest" in the center of each mushroom. Crack eggs into the center of the "nest".

  5. Transfer pan to the oven and broil until the eggs are cooked to your liking (we like the yolks a bit runny), 4 to 6 minutes. Watch the mushrooms closely and if the edges start to burn before the egg is cooked, loosely cover with a piece of foil.

  6. When eggs are cooked to your liking, remove pan from oven. Season the eggs with some salt and black pepper.

  7. Top each mushroom with roasted red pepper salsa (or serve on the side to add at the table). These are easiest to eat with a fork and knife thanks to those runny egg yolks. Enjoy!
