    Add the tomatoes and then reduce the heat to medium. Allow to simmer for at least 10 minutes or until the vegetables and beans are your desired firmness.

  4. Step 4

    Stir in the baby spinach leaves. Add some maple syrup if your shakshuka is too acidic and season with salt and pepper to taste.
