Ingredients

  • 1 block (7–8 oz) feta cheese
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 1/2 cups cherry tomatoes
  • 1 cup fresh spinach
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons fresh basil or parsley, chopped

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. Place the cherry tomatoes and minced garlic in a small baking dish.
  3. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with oregano, red pepper flakes, salt, and black pepper.
  4. Place the block of feta cheese in the center of the dish.
  5. Bake for about 15 minutes until the tomatoes soften and the feta becomes warm and slightly golden.
  6. Remove the dish from the oven and stir in the spinach until it begins to wilt.
  7. Create small spaces in the mixture and crack the eggs into those spaces.
  8. Return the dish to the oven and bake for another 7–10 minutes until egg whites are set and yolks reach desired doneness.
  9. Garnish with fresh basil or parsley before serving.

Notes

  • A block of feta bakes more evenly than crumbled feta.
  • Add bell peppers, onions, or zucchini for extra vegetables.
  • Olives or sun-dried tomatoes enhance the Mediterranean flavor.
  • Serve with crusty bread, pita, or roasted potatoes.
  • Prepare the tomato and feta base ahead of time, then add eggs when ready to bake.
  • Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
