Step 1: Sauté the Aromatics

• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
• Add chopped onions and garlic, sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened and fragrant.

📌 Pro Tip: Stir often to prevent garlic from burning—it should be golden, not brown.

Step 2: Add Tomatoes and Spices

• Stir in diced tomatoes, smoked paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
• Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down into a rich sauce.

Step 3: Add the Beans

• Mix in the cooked beans and reduce the heat to low.
• Simmer for 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to blend.

📌 Block Quote:

“Letting the beans simmer in the spices enhances their depth of flavor, making every bite irresistibly good.“

Step 4: Cook the Eggs

Choose your preferred method:

• Poached: Make small wells in the beans and crack the eggs directly into the skillet. Cover and cook for 3-5 minutes.
• Fried: Cook eggs separately in another pan, then place them over the beans.
• Scrambled: Beat the eggs, then stir them into the beans, cooking until fluffy.

Step 5: Garnish & Serve

• Sprinkle fresh cilantro or parsley.
• Add crumbled feta cheese or sliced avocado.
• Serve with warm toast, tortillas, or a side of fresh fruit.

📌 Pro Tip: For extra flavor, drizzle with hot sauce or a squeeze of lime juice.
