Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes
  • 1 red bell pepper (diced)
  • ½ small red onion (diced)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 8 ounces feta cheese
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 cup chopped baby spinach
  • 4 large eggs
  • Optional toppings: Chopped fresh basil or fresh chives

Instructions

  • Prepare the Oven and Dishes
    • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
    • For individual servings: Divide the tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, garlic, and feta cheese among 4 oven-safe ramekins or small baking dishes. Drizzle 1 tablespoon of olive oil over each dish.
    • For one large dish: Combine the tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, and garlic in the dish. Place the feta block in the center, and drizzle with 4 tablespoons of olive oil.
  • Season the Ingredients
    • In a small bowl, combine oregano, salt, thyme, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
    • Distribute the spice mixture evenly over the feta and vegetables.
  • Bake the Feta and Veggies
    • Place ramekins on a baking sheet (or place the large dish directly in the oven) and bake for 25 minutes, until the vegetables soften and the feta begins to brown.
  • Add Spinach and Eggs
    • Remove from the oven and stir the feta into the vegetables to combine evenly. Add chopped spinach and mix until incorporated.
    • Create a well in the center of each ramekin (or four wells in the large dish). Crack one egg into each well.
  • Finish Baking
    • Return the dishes to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks are still slightly runny. Adjust bake time to your desired yolk consistency.
  • Garnish and Serve
    • Garnish with fresh basil or chives, if desired.
    • Serve with crusty baguette, toast, or pita for dipping.

Notes

  • You can use any type of cheese or add extra veggies to customize the dish.
  • If you prefer hard yolks, increase the baking time by a few minutes.
