Baked Eggs With Tomato And Feta Recipe

For the tomato sauce: 

1. In a medium size sauce pot, add the olive oil and heat until warm, add the garlic and sauté until the edges turn lightly golden. Add the oregano and the basil, stir to combine, add a pinch of salt and pepper then add the crushed tomatoes. Add ¼ cup of water into the tomato can to remove any excess sauce and add this water to the pot.

3. Add the tomato sauce and bring to a simmer. Add the diced bread spreading it evenly throughout the pan.
4. Gently crack the eggs into the pan and top with the feta. Let simmer on low heat for approximately 2 minutes until the egg whites start to solidify and turn slightly opaque. 
5. Place the baking dish into a 375º F oven for 5 – 10 minutes depending upon how firm you want the eggs.
