This easy vegetarian weeknight meal is packed with protein--an impressive 28 grams per serving--thanks to the beans, eggs, kale, cheese and whole-grain bread. It's also super high in vitamin C, calcium and iron.
Preheat the broiler. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until soft, about 4 minutes. Add the beans and reserved bean liquid, chicken broth, soy sauce, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Bring to a simmer, add the kale and stir until wilted; bring back to a simmer and cook until the kale is tender and the stew is slightly thickened, about 15 minutes. Remove from the heat, cover and keep warm.
Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet. Once the oil is hot, crack the eggs into the skillet and cook until the whites begin to set up, about 2 minutes. Sprinkle each egg with pepper, cover and continue to cook until the whites are completely set and the yolks are still runny, about 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat.
Sprinkle the cheese on the bread, transfer to a baking sheet and broil until melted, watching closely. Cut each slice in quarters.
Divide the stew among 4 bowls, top each with an egg and serve with the cheese toasts and hot sauce.
Cook’s Note
If kidney or pinto beans are unavailable, feel free to substitute another kind, such as black beans.
