Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- ½ medium onion diced
- 4 garlic cloves finely chopped
- 9 ounces Brussels sprouts shaved or finely sliced
- 1 zucchini grated
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon pepper
- 2 cups packed baby spinach
- 5 large eggs
- ¼ cup fresh cilantro chopped

Instructions
- Heat olive oil in a saute pan on medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until the onion becomes translucent. Add the garlic and cook an additional minute.
- Add the shaved brussels sprouts and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring frequently. When the brussels sprouts have softened, add the zucchini and spices and stir for another minute.
- Add the baby spinach and stir until it just starts to wilt, then turn the heat to low.
- Flatten the mixture with a spatula and create 5 small wells, then crack the eggs into each well.
- Cook until the eggs are done to your liking. You can also add a lid to steam and cook the eggs faster.
- Sprinkle the fresh cilantro on top and garnish with sliced avocado.
