Healthy Green Shakshuka Meal Prep and Storage

Meal Prep: The thing about meal prepping eggs, is that reheating them cooks them more. Instead of making the full dish and then storing for later, I recommend just making the base. Cool and add to individual containers. Then when you reheat crack in the eggs and cook them.
Storage: Any leftovers can be stored for later. Store in the fridge for up to 5 days. Not great in the freezer.
Reheating: To reheat, add the base to a small skillet and heat for 5 minutes over medium heat. Then crack the eggs in and cook as instructed below.
