The inspiration for this recipe came to me on a recent trip to the Mediterranean. I was staying in a small village on the coast of Greece, and I would often have breakfast at a local cafe. One morning, I ordered a traditional Greek breakfast of eggs, feta cheese, and tomatoes. The flavors were so simple, yet so delicious. I knew that I had to recreate this dish at home.
