Ingredients

1 (8-ounce) block feta cheese
12 large eggs
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil plus more for greasing the baking dish
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
Pita pocket for serving
fresh basil and/or mint for serving

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Grease an 8x11 baking dish with olive oil.
Place the feta block in the middle of the prepared baking dish. Crack 12 eggs around it, then drizzle olive oil over the feta and eggs. Season the eggs with salt and season both the eggs and feta with black pepper.
Bake in the preheated oven for 18-22 minutes, until the feta cheese melts and the egg whites around the edges cook.
Use a fork to scramble the eggs and feta together. Don’t worry if some of the whites still look wet as they will continue cooking from the heat of the baking dish and surrounding eggs.
Enjoy the eggs alone or scoop into pita pockets and garnish with mint or basil leaves.

Notes

Nutrition label is for eggs only and does not include the optional pita bread for serving.

Storage: I'm not a huge fan of cold eggs, but you could store any leftovers in the fridge in an airtight container for a few days. I would just reheat them in the microwave!
