In mixing bowl, combine beaten eggs with two tablespoons of the parsley, dill, tarragon, feta cheese, pepper, and salt.

12
Oil a 10 inch tart pan and line bottom generously with bread crumbs.
13

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.
