Easy Shakshuka with Feta
Jump to Recipe
Originating from the Ottoman Empire Shakshouka or Shakshuka is an easy baked egg recipe filled with flavor. The word is Arabic for “a mixture”, which is quite fitting for this dish. Although this version of the Shakshuka recipe is more traditional, there are TONS of ways to make this dish. Find a few other Shakshouka recipe ideas here!
My version of Shakshuka uses tomatoes, garlic, cumin, coriander and feta cheese. The dish itself is a great healthy option for breakfast, lunch or dinner. I like to add pita bread alongside mine to mop up all the delicious sauce though! Use this traditional Shakshuka recipe as a starting point, then try your own creative twist on the classic. Don’t forget to share what you made!

Jenny, it’s great to see you again. Your Shakshuka looks tasty (so did your previous “sticky” recipe) and I can’t wait to see what you have coming down the pike. Sounds like life is going well for you and that makes me smile. Keep on cooking and creating, kiddo! I’ve been very laid back about blogging this past year, but you’re inspiring me, xo.
Thanks! I know, sometimes it is hard to keep motivated to keep blogging year after year, but I have a bunch of delicious recipes that I have been wanting to share, so looking forward to it!
