Shakshuka with Harissa


I am always looking for ways to make meals interactive to encourage my kids to try new flavors. They have always been big fans of a soft cooked egg yolk so shakshuka was the perfect way to get in some extra nutrients with the tomato base. This is a simple and interactive meal that makes it a great option for the kids. They get to dip the bread into the rich egg yolks while also getting other healthy foods like tomatoes and peppers.
