Baked Feta Eggs with Spinach
These baked feta eggs are cozy, creamy, and packed with Mediterranean flavor. 🍅🧀 Perfect for a lazy weekend brunch or an easy weekday breakfast that feels gourmet!
Ingredients:
- 2 cups cherry or grape tomatoes
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- ½ small red onion, diced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 8 oz feta cheese
- 4 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 tsp sea salt
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ tsp red pepper flakes
- 1 cup chopped baby spinach
- 4 large eggs
- Optional: chopped fresh basil or chives for topping
Step-by-Step Instructions (Detailed):
- Preheat your oven to 400°F.
- If using ramekins (recommended for single servings), divide the tomatoes, bell pepper, red onion, garlic, and feta into 4 oven-safe dishes. Drizzle 1 tbsp olive oil into each.
- If using one large baking dish, add the tomatoes, pepper, onion, and garlic to the dish. Place the feta block in the center, and drizzle with 4 tbsp olive oil.
- In a small bowl, mix together the oregano, sea salt, thyme, black pepper, and red pepper flakes.
- Sprinkle the spice mix evenly over the veggies and feta.
- Place ramekins on a baking sheet (or place your single baking dish directly in the oven) and bake for 25 minutes.
- Carefully remove from the oven. Stir the ingredients gently to mix the melted feta with the roasted veggies.
- Add the chopped spinach and mix until it wilts slightly. 🥬
- Use a spoon to create a small well in the center of each ramekin (or 4 wells in the large dish).
- Crack one egg into each well.
- Return the dishes to the oven and bake for another 10 minutes, or until eggs are cooked to your liking. 🍳
- Top with chopped basil or chives and serve warm with crusty toast, pita, or a baguette for dipping! 😍
Pro Tips:
- Meal prep tip: Roast the veggie-feta mix the day before and just bake the eggs fresh in the morning.
- Make it spicy: Add extra red pepper flakes or a drizzle of hot honey!
- Swap it up: Try kale instead of spinach, or goat cheese for a different twist.
