This is my type of cuisine~~rustic, global, historical, vintage, legacies of spices and food that is extraordinarily healthy.

Ingredients
- 1/2 cup black rice
- 1/3 cup black quinoa

Preparation
Step 1
In a medium, microwave-safe bowl, combine the rice, quinoa, chicken broth, water and salt. Cover with a microwave-safe plate and microwave about 22 minutes on high until fluffy. Remove and with a fork mix. Recover and set aside.
In a 10″ skillet, preferably cast iron, over medium heat, put the olive oil and sauté about 2 minutes the garlic and shallots. Reduce heat to low and add the sliced kale. Sprinkle on the cumin, ½ teaspoon salt, red pepper flakes and blend. Add the lemon juice and blend. Add the cooked rice/quinoa into this mixture and blend.
Reduce heat to low. Crack the eggs on top of the greens and add the tomatoes, cover with a glass lid. Let the eggs steam, about 5-7 minutes, until sunnyside or yolks runny.
Plating & Serving~~With a large spoon scoop a helping onto a plate or into a small bowl (with at least one egg in each serving). Dollop on a scoop of Spicy Labneh Sauce and garnish with the chopped parsley/cilantro.
