Pisto con huevos

"Pisto con huevos" is a vegetarian dish delivering roughly 11g of protein for about 218.3 calories a serving — a solid plant-based option for life on Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro or Zepbound.

Ingredients

• 2 Olive Oil
• 2 Onion
• 4 Garlic Clove
• 5 Mixed peppers
• 1 teaspoon Oregano
• sprigs Thyme
• 4 Bay Leaves
• 2 Courgettes
• 1 Aubergine
• 4 Tomato
• 4 Egg
• handful Parsley

Method

1. 1Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish or a cast-iron skillet over a low heat. Add the onions and a sprinkle of salt, cover and cook gently for 15 mins, stirring occasionally. Add the garlic and cook for another 2 mins.
2. 2Next, throw in the peppers and cook over a medium heat, covered, for about 5 mins, stirring every so often, until the peppers are just tender.
3. 3Mix in the oregano, thyme, bay leaves, some black pepper and a little salt, if needed. Tip in the courgettes and aubergine, combine thoroughly, and cook over a medium heat, covered, for 10 mins. Stir in the tomatoes, cover and cook for 20 mins, stirring occasionally.
4. 4Carefully crack the eggs over the pisto – try not to break the yolks. Cook in the sauce on a medium heat for 5-6 mins until the eggs are cooked through but still a little soft, then scatter with parsley before serving

Tips for GLP-1 appetites

• A reasonable everyday option — nothing here should be hard on a GLP-1 stomach.
• At 11g of protein a serving, pair it with a protein-forward side if you're short of your daily target.
