I love the pesto egg trend as much as the next gal, but these baked pesto eggs are even better! Lots of pesto, feta cheese, sun dried tomatoes, and roasted red peppers.
This dish is so easy to whip up, making this the perfect brunch dish! All we do is oil up a couple ramekins, dump everything in them, bake, and that’s it! I top mine with arugula and serve with fresh bread.
