Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 200 g Feta cheese, crumbled
  • 4 large Eggs
  • 2 tablespoons Olive oil
  • 1 cup Cherry tomatoes, halved
  • 1 cup Spinach, chopped
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • to taste Salt
  • to taste Black pepper
  • for garnish Fresh herbs (such as parsley or oregano)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Drizzle 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a medium-sized baking dish so it coats the bottom evenly.
  3. Add the halved cherry tomatoes, spinach, and minced garlic into the dish. Sprinkle with salt and black pepper. Mix gently to combine all flavors.
  4. Gently place the crumbled feta cheese over the vegetable mix, ensuring it is evenly distributed.
  5. Create 4 wells in the feta and vegetable mixture using a spoon. Crack an egg into each well and season gently with salt and pepper.
  6. Transfer the baking dish to the preheated oven and bake for about 25 minutes or until the eggs are set to your liking.
  7. Remove from the oven and sprinkle with fresh herbs before serving.

Notes

If you can't find feta, crumbled goat cheese is an excellent alternative but adjust the salt as needed. Keep an eye on the eggs; if you prefer firmer yolks, bake a few minutes longer. Avoid overcrowding the baking dish with too many tomatoes or spinach to prevent a watery consistency. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
