“With two growing kids at home I am always thinking of ways to add more veggies in every meal. This dish fits the bill and is a family favorite and we usually have it for weekend brunch with warm crusty bread although we’ve had it for dinner once or twice as well. This version has rainbow chard but you can also use kale or spinach. It is also delicious topped with avocado and microgreens. Enjoy!” – Kate

Instructions:
Heat olive oil in a large pan on medium-high heat and sauté garlic, onions, bell peppers, and rainbow chard stems until soft, about 5 mins. Add spices and harissa paste (if using) and cook for 2-3 minutes. Add rainbow chard leaves and stir until wilted then add crushed tomatoes, and season with salt and pepper. Lower heat to medium-low and simmer for about 15 minutes until the sauce thickens.
Once the sauce is thick, make dents with the back of the spoon and gently crack an egg into each well. Cover and poach eggs for about 5 minutes or until whites are set. Cook longer if you prefer firm egg yolks. Top with crumbled feta and chopped parsley. Serve with warm crusty bread.
