BAKED EGGS WITH BEANS AND GREENS
Consider this a heartier version of the classic Italian dish "eggs in purgatory," which works well for breakfast, lunch or dinner. It's also very forgiving. If you'd rather keep this a vegetarian meal, skip the sausage. No chickpeas? No problem. Any white bean will work well in its place. Same with the greens. Use what you have (anything that wilts works). Sprinkling the dish with grated cheese before serving is not required, but it sure does taste good. Serve with thick slices of toasted sesame bread slathered with plenty of softened butter.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Heat the olive oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over medium heat. If using the sausage, add to the pan and cook, breaking it into 1/2-inch pieces, by pressing with the back of spatula or wooden spoon until crisp and cooked through, about 8 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside.
- Add the onion to the skillet and cook until softened, about 3 to 5 minutes. Add the chickpeas and the garlic and cook until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Season with salt. Add the sausage back to the pan along with the tomatoes and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and gradually add in the chopped greens by the handful, tossing together until wilted. Season with salt.
- Using a spoon, create hollows in the sauce and gently crack the eggs into each, and season the eggs with salt and pepper. Transfer to the oven and cook until the eggs are set, about 7 to 9 minutes. Scatter the herbs on top along with a tablespoon or two of grated cheese, if using.

- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Using a 3-inch biscuit cutter or your fingers, make a hole in the center of 4 slices of bread. Butter one side of the remaining 4 slices.

- Bake until cheese has melted, and the egg is set but slightly runny, about 15 minutes. Be sure to check frequently, as the eggs set quickly.

Steps:
- Heat a large saute pan over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil, the bacon, and garlic, and cook until bacon is almost crisp. Add sage, and cook just until bacon is crisp and garlic is golden (if sage and garlic begin to brown, remove them before the bacon). Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon; reserve fat in pan. Fry bread slices in fat, adding a splash of oil if pan seems dry, until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes total. Transfer bread to a plate.
- Heat beans and their liquid in same pot until simmering. Stir in 2 teaspoons oil and the redpepper flakes. Meanwhile, fry eggs in oil in a separate pan.
- Place 1 piece toast on each of 4 plates, and spoon beans over toast. Place 1 egg on each, and top with bacon, garlic, and sage. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with more red-pepper flakes.

So, just in case you are still wondering what we are talking about, here's the recipe, which would provide a meal for two. NOTE: While the toast is toasting, don't forget to make a large pot of tea.

Steps:
- Empty the baked beans into a small saucepan.
- Prepare a pan to either poach or fry the eggs (your choice, but poached is better).
- Start toasting the bread. How many slices is, of course, up to you and your appetite at the time, but at least 2 slices each are needed for the beans, plus any additional slices for the jam later.
- While the toast is toasting, don't forget to make a large pot of tea. It is an absolute fact that you cannot eat Beans on Toast without lots of tea.
- Once the toast is on, gently warm the beans, and start to cook the eggs.
- As the toast is done, place it on pre-warmed plates, and apply lots of butter to taste.
- Divide the beans between the two plates, spreading them over the 2 slices of toast.
- Place the cooked eggs on top of the beans, sprinkle a little pepper, (and if you prefer, maybe a dash of Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce), and enjoy.
Tips for Making Baked Eggs and Beans on Toast:
- Choose the right bread: A sturdy bread that can hold up to the weight of the eggs and beans is best. Sourdough, multigrain, or whole wheat bread are all good choices.
- Use fresh eggs: Fresh eggs will give you the best flavor and texture. If you're not sure if your eggs are fresh, crack them into a bowl before adding them to the recipe. If the yolk is firm and the white is clear, they're good to use.
- Cook the beans until they're tender: Canned beans are a quick and easy option, but you can also use dried beans. Just be sure to soak them overnight before cooking them according to the package directions.
- Season the eggs and beans well: A little salt and pepper go a long way. You can also add other seasonings like garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
- Bake the eggs and beans until they're set: The eggs should be cooked through but still have a slightly runny yolk. The beans should be heated through and slightly caramelized.
- Serve immediately: Baked eggs and beans on toast are best served hot. Garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro or parsley for extra flavor.
Conclusion:
Baked eggs and beans on toast is a quick and easy breakfast, lunch, or dinner recipe that's packed with protein and flavor.
