Prep Time 15 minutes
Cook Time 20 minutes
Total Time 35 minutes
Servings: 4 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 bunch spinach cleaned and rough ends of stems removed
  • 2 cloves garlic thinly sliced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt divided
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper divided
  • 4 eggs
  • 1/4 cup crumbled feta
  • 1/4 cup plain Greek yogurt (low-fat)

Equipment

  • Large Skillet
  • Spatula
  • Blender or food processor
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Measuring Cups

Method
 

  1. Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
  2. Add the spinach, sliced garlic, and half of the salt and pepper to the skillet.
  3. Sauté the spinach and garlic for about 2 minutes, stirring, until the spinach is fully wilted.
  4. Make four small wells in the wilted spinach and crack one egg into each well.
  5. Sprinkle the eggs with the remaining salt and pepper, then cook 2–3 minutes until the whites are set but the yolks remain soft.
  6. Meanwhile, combine the crumbled feta and Greek yogurt in a blender or food processor and blend until smooth and creamy.
  7. Serve each egg and spinach portion topped or accompanied by a spoonful of the creamed feta sauce.

Notes

  • Use fresh spinach for best texture.
  • Adjust cooking time slightly for firmer or runnier yolks.
  • Thin the feta sauce with a splash of water if too thick.
