  • 2 cups Cherry or Grape Tomatoes Provides sweetness and moisture; can substitute with diced regular tomatoes.
  • 1 medium Red Bell Pepper Adds color and sweetness; any bell pepper variety may be used.

  • 2 cloves Garlic Enhances overall flavor; use minced or crushed garlic for ease.
  • 2 tablespoons Olive Oil Adds richness; can use avocado oil for a unique twist.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Gather all ingredients and ready your baking dish or ramekins.
  2. In a mixing bowl, arrange the cherry tomatoes, red bell pepper, red onion, and garlic. If using ramekins, divide evenly among 4 containers. Place crumbled feta in the center and drizzle with olive oil.
  3. Combine dried oregano, sea salt, dried thyme, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Sprinkle this mixture over the vegetables and feta.
  4. Carefully place the baking dish or ramekins in the preheated oven and bake for 25 minutes.
  5. Remove from the oven and gently stir the baked vegetables and feta. Fold in the fresh baby spinach.
  6. Make small wells in the vegetable and feta mixture for your eggs. Crack the large eggs into each well.
  7. Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 10 minutes.
  8. Garnish with fresh basil or chives before serving.
  9. Serve warm or at room temperature, perhaps alongside crusty bread or soft pita.
