Ingredients  

  • 2-3 cooked sausages, sliced into thin rounds (or protein of choice)
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 zucchini, sliced into thin rounds
  • 1 Japanese eggplant, sliced into thin rounds
  • 8 ounces mushrooms, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium yellow onion, roughly chopped
  • 3 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon cumin
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 1/4 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
  • 1 32 ounce can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 6 ounce can tomato paste
  • salt and pepper, to taste
  • 6 large Vital Farms eggs
  • 1/4 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/4 cup green onions, thinly sliced

Instructions 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 350° F.
  • In a large, oven-safe skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until lightly browned. Transfer the sausage to a bowl and set aside.
  • In the same skillet over medium heat, add in 1 tablespoon of the olive oil. Add in the zucchini, eggplant, and mushrooms and sauté until they’re soft, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.
  • Arrange the vegetables and sausages in a spiral pattern in the pan, alternating between mushroom, zucchini, eggplant, and sausage.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add in the remaining tablespoon of olive oil along with the onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until translucent, about 5 minutes.
  • Add in the garlic, cumin, paprika, chili powder, and sesame seeds and cook for 1 minute.
  • Add in the crushed tomatoes and tomato paste and stir to combine. Season with salt and pepper and bring the sauce to a simmer. Simmer for about 10 minutes, until flavors have melded and sauce has reduced slightly.
  • Pour finished sauce over vegetables and sausage. Use a large spoon to make small wells in the sauce and crack an egg into each well.
  • Cover and place in the oven to cook for 15-20 minutes, until the egg whites are set and the yolks are still a bit jammy.
  • To garnish, sprinkle over the feta and green onions. Serve with crusty bread to mop up the sauce!
