A simple recipe for Shakshuka that is made in one skillet and is incredibly flavorful and delicious.
Today’s Secret Recipe Club reveal comes to you from Fried Ice & Donut Holes. What a fun blog! I was totally jonesin for cookies after perusing Melissa’s blog. I knew I’d love her to bits when I noticed her tags. You know…the list of keywords on most blog sidebars that displayed with different font sizes? The bigger the font, the more recipes that correspond to that word. Melissa’s – Baked Goods & Pasta. Hello new best friend. I heart you!
I looked around for quite some time and finally landed on Shakshuka. Just like Melissa, I’ve always wanted to make it, but just never have. Too many recipes in this world that I want to try and sometimes some of the most interesting get slipped to the back burner. Well not anymore, this was our Sunday morning breakfast and the kids and hubs were pretty darned stoked. They gobbled it up in fact.
You definitely need to go check out Fried Ice & Donut Holes and tell her that I sent ya! Great foodie and a lot of fun to have gotten her as my Secret Recipe blog!
