Ingredients
  

2 cups canned white beans (such as cannellini or great northern), drained and rinsed

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 bell pepper (red or green), diced

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1/2 teaspoon cumin

1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper (adjust for heat)

Salt and black pepper, to taste

1 (14 oz) can diced tomatoes with green chilies

4 large eggs

Fresh parsley or cilantro, for garnish

Crusty bread or tortillas, for serving

Instructions
 

Sauté the Vegetables: In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.

    Add Garlic & Spices: Stir in the minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another minute until fragrant.

      Incorporate Beans and Tomatoes: Add the rinsed white beans and the can of diced tomatoes (with their juices) to the skillet. Stir to combine and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

        Create Wells for Eggs: After simmering, use a spoon to create four small wells in the bean mixture. Carefully crack an egg into each well.

          Cook the Eggs: Cover the skillet and cook on low heat for about 5-7 minutes, or until the eggs are cooked to your desired doneness. You want the whites set but the yolks still runny.

            Serve: Once the eggs are cooked, remove the skillet from heat. Garnish with chopped parsley or cilantro. Serve hot with crusty bread or warmed tortillas for dipping.
