Ingredients
2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes
1 red bell pepper, diced
ยฝ small red onion, diced
3 cloves garlic, minced
8 oz feta cheese
4 Tbsp olive oil
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp sea salt
ยฝ tsp dried thyme
ยฝ tsp black pepper
ยฝ tsp red pepper flakes
1 cup chopped baby spinach
4 large eggs
Optional: chopped fresh basil or chives
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 400ยฐF (โ 200ยฐC).
-
If making individual servings, divide the tomatoes, red bell pepper, onion, garlic, and feta among 4 ramekins. Drizzle about 1 Tbsp olive oil over each dish. If using one large baking dish (8ร8 or 9ร11), combine tomatoes, bell pepper, onion, and garlic; place the feta in the center; drizzle olive oil over everything.
-
In a small bowl, mix dried oregano, sea salt, dried thyme, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Sprinkle this spice mix evenly over the veggies and feta.
-
Place your dish(es) on a baking sheet (for ease of handling), and bake for about 25 minutes. The vegetables should be soft, and the feta should begin to soften and meld with them.
-
Remove from oven momentarily. Stir everything so the feta is blended into the veggies, then stir in the chopped baby spinach until it’s evenly mixed.
-
Make wells for eggs: either one well per ramekin, or four wells in the larger dish. Crack one egg into each well.
-
Return to oven and bake for another 10 minutes (or until egg whites are set but yolks are still slightly runny, or to your preferred doneness).
-
Once done, top with fresh herbs like basil or chives if you like.
-
Serve hot, with crusty baguette, toast, or pita for dipping.
Notes
Choose a high-quality feta thatโs not too crumbly so it melts nicely into the vegetables.
Drain excess tomato juice if needed to avoid a watery bake.
Bake time may vary based on preferred egg doneness.
If using ramekins, they should hold at least 10 oz each
