    This dish, for me fits into the age old saying that "if you've got eggs, you've got dinner... errr... or breakfast." This spicy little one pot number is a 15 minute job guys. That's it.  We aaaaallll got 15 minutes that we can spend making this spicy, fragrant, juicy with tomatoes and rich with egg yolks breakfast I mean dinner. Okay, so maybe I've been eating them for breakfast and dinner, with a few bites here and there for lunch.

    In this pan of flavour boldness we've got my all time favourite spice booster harissa paste. The brand that I use is a rose harissa paste. I also threw in some smoky paprika, just because. But other than the harissa, everything in these baked eggs will be things that you already have on hand.

    But, to be sure, I skipped the mild and creamy yogurt and went for feta, so altogether more punch and flavour.

      Unfortunately my system is intolerant to tomatoes. They give me migraines.
      Do you have any ideas on good alternatives to tomato? They give such good flavor and texture, I wish I could have them.

        Hi Wayne. You can skip a tomato sauce and make a red pepper sauce like this red pepper sauce. That should do the trick for you. Hope you love the recipe!
