Vegan Shakshuka

I’ve made this recipe for friends and family and now I finally felt like I really needed to share it with you! Shakshuka is traditionally made with poached eggs and served with bread. To veganize and make it gluten-free, I added garbanzo beans & made my cassava naan recipe as a flatbread to eat it with!

For the veggies, use whatever is seasonal! I used butternut squash and crimini mushrooms. The result was absolutely, ridiculously delicious. This is not a marinara with bread - but more a skillet veggie dish with a spicy tomato sauce!

Any level of home cook can make this recipe and this is sure to impress a crowd for a dinner party!
