Notes
Shakshuka is best served warm right out of the skillet. Pair it with crusty bread or pita to soak up the delicious sauce. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2-3 days. For a richer flavor, add spices like cumin or paprika while cooking the tomatoes. Feel free to incorporate other vegetables like bell peppers or spinach for added nutrition.
