Ingredients
  

  • 2 tbsp olive oil or butter
  • 4-5 cups fresh baby spinach
  • Salt and black pepperto taste
  • 2 large eggs
  • ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
  • Optional toppings: avocado slices, toasted bread, chili flakes, fresh lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Sauté the spinach - Heat olive oil or butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the spinach and cook for 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until wilted. Season with salt and black pepper.
  • Create space for the eggs - Use a spoon to make two small wells in the spinach. Crack one egg into each well.
  • Cook the eggs - Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for about 3–5 minutes, or until the egg whites are set but the yolks remain soft and runny.
  • Add feta and finish - Sprinkle the crumbled feta cheese evenly over the spinach and eggs. Let it warm for about 1 minute so it softens slightly.
  • Serve - Remove from heat and top with optional toppings like avocado slices, a squeeze of lemon juice, a sprinkle of chili flakes, and toasted bread on the side.
