Description

A savory breakfast of eggs combined with chickpeas and sun-dried tomatoes, perfect for busy mornings or brunch with friends.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup cooked chickpeas (canned is fine)
  • 1/4 cup sun-dried tomatoes, chopped
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Olive oil for cooking

Instructions

  1. Start by heating a generous splash of olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
  2. Once the oil is shimmering, add in the cooked chickpeas and sun-dried tomatoes. Sauté for about 3–5 minutes to warm through and get a bit of color.
  3. Using a spoon, make two small wells in the chickpeas, and crack an egg into each well.
  4. Season with salt and pepper, sprinkling evenly over the dish.
  5. Cover the frying pan with a lid and let it cook until the eggs are set to your liking—soft yolks or firm, it’s your choice!
  6. Once done, serve warm and enjoy your accomplishment of creating a protein-packed breakfast.

Notes

Pair with crusty whole-grain bread or fresh herbs for added flavor. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
