About

You've heard of shakshuka before, but Spicy Eggs are a distinctly Tex-Mex rendition of the trendy dish. The eggs are baked in spicy salsa verde and then sprinkled with salty cotija cheese and fragrant cilantro! The eggs are perfectly runny and savory, just begging to be dipped with tortillas and maybe even fresh radishes! Spicy Eggs will bring a little heat to your breakfast!
