Ingredients
  

4 large eggs

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled

1/4 cup milk (whole or low-fat)

1 small onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tbsp olive oil

1/2 tsp salt

1/4 tsp black pepper

1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (optional, for extra heat)

Fresh dill or parsley, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 375°F (190°C). This will ensure that it is at the right temperature when you're ready to bake.

    Sauté the Vegetables: In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until it becomes translucent and slightly soft. Next, add the minced garlic and continue to cook for an additional minute until the garlic is fragrant. Add the chopped spinach to the skillet and cook until the spinach is wilted and tender, approximately 2-3 minutes. Season the mixture with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes if you prefer a bit of spice. Remove the skillet from the heat and set aside.

      Prepare the Egg Mixture: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the large eggs and milk until they are fully combined and frothy. Gently fold in the crumbled feta cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.

        Combine Ingredients: Carefully stir the sautéed spinach and onion mixture into the egg and feta mixture. Make sure all ingredients are well incorporated and evenly mixed.

          Bake the Eggs: Lightly grease a small baking dish or individual ramekins with non-stick spray or a thin layer of olive oil. Pour the egg mixture into the prepared dish, spreading it out evenly for uniform cooking.

            Bake: Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 20-25 minutes. The dish is ready when the eggs are set, puffed, and lightly golden on top.

              Garnish & Serve: Once baked, carefully remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Garnish with fresh dill or parsley for an aromatic touch if desired. Slice into portions and serve warm, enjoying this delightful and hearty meal!

                  - Presentation Tips: For an elegant touch, serve the baked eggs directly from the ramekins or dish on a wooden board. Accompany with warm, crusty bread or a simple side salad for a complete meal. Enjoy!
