Directions

  1. In a 12-inch (30 cm) cast iron skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add cumin and paprika and stir until combined. Add tomato sauce, spinach, and lentils and stir until well combined.
  2. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then create four indentations in the mixture. Crack eggs into the indentations, cover and cook on medium heat until the egg whites are set, about 10 minutes.
  3. Adjust seasonings as needed and serve immediately.

Quick tip: Make use of homemade fresh or frozen tomato sauce if you have it on hand.
