This is one of my favorite go-to meals. I love to make this dish on the weekends. This does not have to be a breakfast dish, you can serve this for brunch or dinner!

Ingredients
1 medium onion, minced
4 medium cloves garlic, chopped
1 tsp apple cider vinegar, or any other light vinegar
about 4 cups of water
3 + 1 TBS chicken or vegetable broth
4 cups black beans or 2 15 oz cans drained 2 tsp ground cumin
1–1/2 TBS red chili powder
2 TBS chopped fresh cilantro
salt and black pepper to taste
4 chicken eggs, preferably organic
prepared salsa
2 cups spinach
1 large avocado, cubed
Instructions
Mince onion and chop garlic and let sit for 5 minutes to bring out their health-promoting benefits.
Bring water and vinegar to a light boil in a shallow pan. Make sure there is enough water to cover the eggs.
In a separate stainless steel skillet, heat 1 TBS broth. Sauté onion in broth over medium heat for about 3 minutes, stirring, until translucent. Add garlic, beans, spinach, red chili powder, cumin, and the rest of the broth while egg water comes to a boil. Warm beans for about 10 minutes on medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. Add cilantro, salt, and pepper.
To poach eggs, crack into the water and cook for about 5 minutes until the white is set and the yolk has filmed over. Remove with a slotted spoon, and place eggs over beans and spinach. Serve with salsa and avocado.
