Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
  2. In individual ramekins or a large baking dish, divide the cherry or grape tomatoes, red bell pepper, red onion, garlic, and feta cheese. Drizzle 4 tablespoons of olive oil evenly over the mixture.
  3. In a small bowl, combine 1 teaspoon of dried oregano, 1 teaspoon of sea salt, ½ teaspoon of dried thyme, ½ teaspoon of ground black pepper, and ½ teaspoon of red pepper flakes. Sprinkle this seasoning mix generously over the feta and vegetables.
  4. Place the baking sheet with the ramekins or the baking dish directly into the preheated oven. Bake for about 25 minutes.
  5. Once out of the oven, stir the cooked vegetables and feta together. Add in 1 cup of chopped baby spinach and mix gently until the spinach starts to wilt.
  6. Create small wells in the mixed vegetable and feta mixture. Crack a large egg into each well.
  7. Return the prepared dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  8. Sprinkle fresh herbs like basil or chives on top for added brightness. Serve warm or at room temperature with crusty bread or pita.
