Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Baked Feta Eggs
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Gather your baking dishes—either individual ramekins or a larger oven-safe dish.
  2. Divide the cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, red onion, minced garlic, and feta cheese evenly among the dishes, drizzling each with olive oil.
  3. Mix together the dried oregano, sea salt, dried thyme, black pepper, and red pepper flakes. Sprinkle this seasoning over the vegetables and feta.
  4. Place your assembled ramekins or baking dish in the oven and bake for about 25 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the feta has melted.
  5. Stir the mixture to combine the melted feta with the roasted veggies, then add the baby spinach, stirring until it wilts.
  6. Create wells in the mixture and gently crack a large egg into each well.
  7. Return the ramekins or dish to the oven for an additional 10 minutes, watching as the egg whites set while the yolks remain runny.
  8. Remove the Baked Feta Eggs from the oven, garnish with fresh herbs or chives, and serve warm.
