Shakshuka.
If you have never tried Shakshuka before, you absolutely must! I promise that it will be unlike any breakfast you have ever tried, but in the best possible way. Shakshuka is full of spices and flavour, and will set you up for your day. If you are a vegetarian, you can easily create this recipe minus the chorizo, or add in something different, such as tofu, or extra veggies. I love to make this on a Saturday morning as a treat, and if I make too much, I save it for the next day, or even to treat myself on Monday morning at the office.
