COOK’S TIP: “The trick to chimichurri is to prepare it just before serving so the herbs don’t discolour. It can be hand-chopped like this one or done in a blender. I love to pan-fry the toast in a little olive oil, it adds depth of flavour and texture. Blend any leftover tomatoes into a dressing, or add stock to make a quick summer soup. Eggs are optional with this breakfast, feel free to substitute with a dollop of soft cream cheese or ricotta, or even crispy streaky bacon.”

Serves 2
EASY
GREAT VALUE
Preparation: 10 minutes
Cooking: 25 minutes
Woolworths snacking peppers 6, halved
Woolworths baby sweet potatoes 6, halved
olive oil 2 T sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
butter 30 g
large free-range eggs 2
Woolworths fajita spice 1 T
Woolworths black beans 1 x 400 g can, drained and rinsed
fresh coriander, for serving
red onion ½, sliced, for serving
1 Preheat the oven to 200°C. Toss the peppers and sweet potatoes in the olive oil, arrange on a baking tray and season to taste. Bake until the potatoes are tender and crisp for about 25 minutes. The peppers might be ready before the potatoes; remove them from the oven until the potatoes are cooked.
2 Heat the butter in a hot non-stick pan and add the eggs. Once they are almost cooked to your liking, add the fajita spice and black beans to warm through, about 30 seconds.
