Turn a few eggs and some veggies into the perfect meal to feed a crowd! These baked eggs with bell peppers and onions takes one sheet pan and comes together in 20 minutes. Change up the vegetables to use up what you have on hand, or to use in-season veggies. I used classic Mediterranean spices (za'atar, cumin, and Aleppo pepper), but season your sheet pan breakfast any way you like. Delicious served on its own, or with some crusty bread to sop up the egg yolk.

Ingredients

  • 1green bell pepper, (cored and thinly sliced)
  • 1orange bell pepper, (cored and thinly sliced)
  • 1red bell pepper, (cored and thinly sliced)
  • 1 mediumred onion, (halved then thinly sliced)
  • 1 teaspoonground cumin
  • 1 teaspoonaleppo pepper ((or red chili flakes))
  • 2 teaspoonsza’atar ((or italian seasoning))
  • kosher salt
  • ground black pepper
  • extra virgin olive oil
  • 6 largeeggs
  • ½ bunchfresh parsley, (chopped, for garnish)
  • 1roma tomato, (diced)
  • feta, (for garnish (optional))

Directions

  1. 1

    Get ready. Preheat your oven to 400°F. Brush a large sheet pan with olive oil.

  2. 2

    Season the veggies. Place the bell peppers and onion on the prepared sheet pan. Season with the cumin, Aleppo pepper, half the za’atar, and a big pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. (Or toss in a bowl if you prefer)

  3. 3

    Roast the veggies. Spread the veggies in one layer and bake in heated oven until soft and starting to brown at the edges, 10 to 15 minutes.

  4. 4

    Add the eggs. Remove pan from oven and use a wooden spoon to carve out 6 pockets among the roasted veggies for the eggs. Carefully crack one egg into each pocket, keeping the yolk intact (it helps to crack the egg in a small dish, then slide carefully into each pocket). Top the eggs with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  5. 5

    Bake the eggs. Return the pan to oven and bake until the egg whites settle. Watch the yolks to see them turn to the doneness you like (anywhere from 5 to 8 minutes).

  6. 6

    Finish and serve. Sprinkle on the remaining za’atar, parsley, tomatoes, and feta to your liking. Enjoy!
