Healthy Harvest^® Pasta Sauce Arrabbiata Poached Eggs

Preparation Time: 2 minutes

Cooking time: 10 minutes

Servings: 4

Instead of poaching in boring water, cook your eggs in zesty pasta sauce to make this perfect protein really sing! Breakfast for dinner anyone?

Ingredients

1 jar (570 mL)	Healthy Harvest^® Pasta Sauce, Arrabbiata
6 cups (1.5 L)	baby spinach or kale
8	large eggs
8	garlic toasts (see tip)
	Shredded Parmesan cheese (optional)
	Chopped fresh basil (optional)

Instructions

Warm pasta sauce in a large, nonstick skillet set over medium heat until bubbling. Stir in spinach until wilted.

Use a spoon to create a divot in the sauce; carefully crack an egg into the divot. Working quickly, repeat with remaining eggs, spacing evenly.

Cover skillet and cook, on medium, for 4 to 5 minutes (for runny eggs) or until cooked to preferred doneness.

Spoon eggs and sauce over garlic toast to serve. Sprinkle with Parmesan and basil (if using).

Tips:

To make garlic toast; blend 1/4 cup (60 mL) butter with 1 grated clove garlic and 1 tbsp (15 mL) finely chopped parsley. Spread over 8 slices of crusty bread. Bake at 350˚F (180˚C) for about 10 minutes or until toasted.
Rotate the skillet as needed during cooking to ensure that all eggs cook evenly.
Customize this quick dish by sautéing vegetables such as mushrooms, peppers or zucchini before adding the sauce to the skillet.
For meat lovers, stir chopped cooked bacon, sausage, ham or chorizo into the sauce before adding the eggs.
