7. Carefully crack the eggs into the tomato sauce, using a spoon to create a small hole for the egg to fit into.
8. Cover and cook until eggs are just set, about 5 minutes. You can also fry or poach the eggs in a separate pan, if you’d prefer (it tends to make for a prettier presentation, though the taste is the same).
9. Remove the cast-iron skillet from the heat and garnish with 1/2 cup of feta cheese crumbles, 1/4 cup of sliced Kalamata olives and a few tablespoons of wild capers.
10. Serve with lavash bread and pita.
11. Enjoy!

This caramel dip is naturally sweetened, made with fiber-rich Medjool dates. A definite upgrade from traditional caramel recipes calling for butter and sugar galore! With a pinch of sea salt, this dip pairs perfectly with freshly sliced apples or pears.

Ingredients:

• 1 cup Soft Medjool dates, pitted and pre-soaked
• 3 Tbsp. Honey
• 2 Tbsp. Almond butter
• Dash of sea salt
• 2 Tbsp. Coconut oil
• 1 1/2 tsp. Vanilla extract

Directions:

1. If you’re using a standard blender or food processor, begin by soaking the dates in filtered water for 2–3 hours, until soft. If you own a powerful blender, there’s no need to soak. It will pulverize the dates easily!
2. Combine all of the ingredients in the blender, and blend until smooth and creamy, adding extra almond milk, if necessary, to facilitate blending.
3. Adjust flavors to taste, and chill before serving.
4. Serve with sliced fruit or coat whole apples with the sauce. Sprinkle with small candies, chopped nuts or sprinkles for an added treat.
