  3. Mix together the dried oregano and red pepper flakes, then sprinkle over the vegetables and feta for added flavor.
  4. Bake for 25 minutes until the vegetables are tender and feta is slightly golden.
  5. Stir the vegetable mixture and fold in fresh spinach until wilted.
  6. Create wells in the mixture and crack an egg into each, returning to the oven for an additional 10 minutes.
  7. Garnish with fresh herbs or chives and serve warm with crusty bread or pita.
