Here is another great breakfast option that adds variety to your eating habits. This dish can be prepared in six individual ramekins or in one large casserole dish.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp (15 mL) canola oil
- ¾ cup (175 mL) minced onion
- 1 tsp (5 mL) chili powder
- ½ tsp (2 mL) ground cumin
- ½ tsp (2 mL) crushed red pepper flakes, (or to taste)
- 1 (19 oz / 540 mL) can low sodium black beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 (19 oz / 540 mL) can low sodium diced tomatoes
- 6 eggs
- ¼ cup (50 mL) grated cheddar cheese
Directions
- In large saucepan, heat canola oil over medium heat. Add onion and sauté for about 5 minutes. Add chili powder, cumin and red pepper flakes and stir for 2 minutes. If you like it extra spicy, add more red pepper flakes to taste.
- Add black beans and tomatoes. Stir. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook for 15-30 minutes until thickened to desired texture. While mixture cooks, preheat oven to 350 °F (180 °C).
- Lightly brush 6 ramekins (placed on a baking sheet) or one 2-quart (2.25 L) casserole dish with canola oil or cooking oil spray. Mash bean mixture well and evenly divide amongst the dishes. Make a shallow hole in the middle of each one.
- Carefully crack one egg on top of each dish. Sprinkle lightly with cheese. Bake for 15 minutes or until egg is cooked to desired doneness.
