Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).

  3. Mix seasonings in a small bowl and sprinkle evenly over the veggies and feta.
  4. Bake for 25 minutes until the veggies are soft and starting to caramelize.
  5. Stir in spinach, let it cook for a couple of minutes until wilted.
  6. Create wells in the mixture for the eggs and crack one into each well.
  7. Finish baking for an additional 10 minutes, until egg whites are set but yolks remain runny.
  8. Garnish and serve warm, optionally with fresh herbs.
