Eggs are a cost-efficient way to get your protein fix for the morning. However, most people stop there when there are so many more options for using eggs besides breakfast! If you are looking for a hearty meal that won’t hurt your wallet, check out the recipes below.
Shakshuka
Israeli cuisine encompasses many North African dishes, especially ones like shakshuka. In this dish, eggs are poached in a sweet pepper and tomato sauce and can be as spicy or mild as you like. Finish with tahini and herbs and you have an impressive main course that is also very filling.
Kuku Sabzi
Traditionally eaten to celebrate the Persian New Year, kuku sabzi is an egg dish that is actually mostly green, celebrating the season of Spring. This frittata-like dish combines eggs with several cups of chopped herbs such as cilantro, parsley, and dill. Some versions call for leeks and onions for added flavor and texture.
Huevos Rancheros
In this Latin-inspired dish, eggs are key. There are only a few other ingredients, including beans and tortillas, but if you happen to have salsa, avocado, or vegetables, it would really make this dish shine.
