Green Shakshuka

This vibrant Green Shakshuka is a fresh twist on the classic tomato-based dish. Made with canned green tomatoes, shredded zucchini and Brussels sprouts, it’s a cozy, nutrient-packed breakfast (or breakfast-for-dinner) that celebrates all things green.

Ingredients

  • 1 small white onion diced
  • 1 green bell pepper diced
  • 3 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 pint shiitake mushrooms sliced
  • 12 ounces brussels sprouts shredded
  • 2 small zucchini grated
  • 1 tablespoon cumin
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 14.5-ounce cans fire roasted green tomatoes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 eggs*
  • Fresh parsley for garnish optional

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Prepare vegetables as noted in ingredient list.
  • Heat a 3.5-quart pan or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Once heated, add in  diced white onion and green bell pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, until onion is translucent. Add in minced garlic and stir to combine.
  • Reduce heat to medium and add in chopped mushrooms, cumin, salt and pepper. Cook for another 2 to 3 minutes, then add in shredded brussels sprouts and grated zucchini.
  • Stir everything together and cook for an additional 7 to 10 minutes. Add in 2 cans of fire roasted green tomatoes and bring to a simmer.
  • Once simmering remove from heat and use the back of a wooden spoon to even out the vegetable mixture. Use the bottom of a glass or metal measuring cup to create 4 wells. Crack an egg into each well and place on the middle rack of preheated oven.
  • Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until the egg whites are fully set and the yolks are still runny. Garnish with fresh chopped parsley (optional) and serve.

Notes

* Add 2 additional eggs before baking the shakshuka to serve 6 or allow each serving more than 1 egg.
