Mediterranean Veggie & Feta Egg Bake

Serves: 6 | Prep time: 15 mins | Bake time: 35–40 mins

The Ingredients

  • The Base: 10 large eggs + ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk (or skim milk).

  • The Veggie Filling:

    • 2 cups broccoli florets, chopped small.

    • 1 cup sliced cremini mushrooms.

    • 1 red bell pepper, diced.

    • ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved.

    • 2 cups fresh baby spinach, chopped.

  • The Flavor & Texture:

    • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese.

    • 2 cloves garlic, minced.

    • 1 tsp dried oregano.

    • Salt and cracked black pepper to taste.

    • Fresh thyme or parsley for garnish.

The Instructions

1. Prep the Veggies

To get that deep flavor seen in the photo, sauté the vegetables first. In a large skillet, cook the mushrooms, broccoli, and peppers with a quick spray of olive oil until tender and slightly browned (about 5–7 minutes). Stir in the garlic and spinach at the last minute until the spinach wilts. Remove from heat.

2. Mix the Eggs

In a large bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, oregano, salt, and pepper until very well combined and slightly frothy.

3. Assemble

Grease an 8×8 inch baking dish. Spread the sautéed vegetable mixture evenly across the bottom. Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese and halved cherry tomatoes over the veggies. Pour the egg mixture over everything, ensuring it seeps into all the nooks and crannies.

4. Bake

Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is set and the top is a beautiful golden brown.

Pro Tip: Let it rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing. This ensures you get those clean, thick squares shown in your image!

Why this is perfect for your page:

  • Meal Prep Friendly: These squares hold up perfectly in the fridge and can be reheated in the microwave for a quick, high-protein breakfast.

  • Meat-Heavy Twist: While this version is vegetarian, you can easily lean into your preference for savory meat by adding cooked turkey sausage crumbles or diced Canadian bacon into the mix.

  • Engagement Idea: Ask your followers if they prefer their egg bake “veggie-style” or with added protein like bacon/sausage—it’s a great way to start a conversation in the comments!
