For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika or cumin to the tomato sauce.
Feel free to substitute other vegetables, such as bell peppers, mushrooms, or eggplant.

The cooking time for the eggs will vary depending on your preference. Keep a close eye on them to ensure they are cooked to your liking.
