My husband is secretly a brilliant cook and always introducing me to new meals, flavor ideas, and just all around deliciousness. His version of Eggs a la Puttanesca was completely developed by him in a 'in the moment' cooking day. It's so good, time and time again, that I had to add it to the site.
We used canned Italian tomatoes because I love San Marzano tomatoes in my Italian dishes, it just adds a level of flavor that you can't beat. But, of course fresh chopped tomatoes would work here too.
Tips:
- Use high quality kalamata olives (organic if you can find)
- Fresh garlic beats the pre-minced versions
- Use pasture raised eggs (Flavor, nutrition profile, color, all are better in pasture raised eggs. It really does make a difference.)
