Shakshouka
If you’ve never heard of Shakshouka, you’re in for quite a treat! Shakshouka is dish of tomatoes, onions, peppers and spices topped with poached eggs, cooked in a skillet over the stove top, and usually served straight from the pan. According to The Book of New Israeli Food: A Culinary Journey quote in Wikipedia, “Shakshouka is a staple of Tunisian, Libyan, Algerian, Moroccan, and Egyptian cuisines traditionally served in a cast iron pan or tajine with bread to mop up the sauce. It is also popular in Israel, where it was introduced by Tunisian Jews.”

Mondays are those days that you don’t feel like cooking. This is especially the case for me since I am now working full time and still fix dinners most days. I am lucky that I knock off earlier than the rest of the population.. I really can’t imagine if I am a working mom who knocks off at 6 or 6.30, have to battle the peak-period crowd to get home, AND still have to come up with dinner for the whole family WITHOUT a helper. My respect goes to all of you working moms. You really have to tell me how you do it.
