Because older eggs are easier to peel, this is one of those times when grocery store eggs outperform the ones from the farmers’ market.

Recipe information

  • Yield

    2 servings

Ingredients

4 large eggs
¼ cup feta
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt, freshly ground pepper
Palmful of chopped tender herbs (such as tarragon and/or chives)

    Step 3

    Spoon egg mixture over flatbreads and top with herbs.
