This is the easiest way to stretch last night's pasta sauce leftovers into a delicious and nutritious lunch.

Rooted in the Italian philosophy of cucina povera, eggs in purgatory (uova in purgatorio) are a simple dish where eggs are gently poached in simmering tomato sauce until just set. It's deeply satisfying, built from what you already have on hand.

Some dishes feel like home. For me, Eggs in Purgatory (Uova in Purgatorio) is one of them. My dad’s family is from Campania, Italy, where this dish has long been a staple, and my Nonna used to make it all the time. It brings me so much joy that I can carry on the tradition, knowing that something as simple as eggs and tomatoes can feel like a warm hug.
