Huevos Habaneros 

This traditional Cuban dish gets its name from the city of Havana, Cuba. It’s primarily made from eggs, which are a great source of protein required by your muscles. Eggs also contain the vitamin known as biotin, which might help maintain your hair and prevent brittle nails. 

Other ingredients include onions, bell peppers, garlic, tomatoes, white wine, habanero peppers, cumin, paprika powder, and butter. huehabHuevos Habaneros in ramekins.

For a lighter breakfast, you can do without paprika or habanero peppers. That is if your stomach is on the sensitive side. Otherwise, these spices will get your metabolism working to its full potential! 

First, you need to sauté all the vegetables in butter, pour the white wine into the skillet, and boil the mixture until around half of the liquid evaporates. 

Second, you place the mixture into separate ramekins, topped with eggs, then bake them in the oven till the eggs get fully cooked. 

Of course, you can opt-out of adding wine, but remember that you will boil the mixture in a skillet, so a lot of the alcohol will evaporate anyways. 

Also, make sure not to add too much butter (around two teaspoons will be enough) to avoid extra calories.
