There are many different variations on this theme. You can add the eggs whole one at a time or you can beat them all together and pour each portion into it's own hole. Please

Ingredients

    4 cups diced tomatoes or a 15 oz can of tomatoes
    1 cup onions diced
    3 cloves of garlic, minced
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    4 large eggs
    1/2 teaspoon salt (only add if using fresh tomatoes)
    1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions


1) In a skillet, saute the onions and garlic in olive oil until softened and add tomatoes. Cook until tomatoes soften and sauce thickens, about 20 minutes.
2) Carefully crack the eggs into the tomato sauce and cook until done to your liking. Some people like to break the yolks, but I like to keep them whole. You can also beat the eggs, and make depressions in the sauce and carefully add and let set in the depressions.

    Very Good
    This is very simple and very filling.
    I was just about to submit a similar recipe; yours is so much better written and I learned that I could beat the eggs ahead of time.
