Ingredients:
- 4 large eggs
- 1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1 medium tomato, diced
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon dried oregano (optional)
- 1 garlic clove, minced (optional)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Ingredients: Wash and chop the spinach and tomato. Mince the garlic if you’re using it.
- Heat the Pan: In a non-stick skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Sauté the Vegetables: Add the garlic (if using) and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant. Then, add the spinach and tomato, cooking for about 2 minutes until the spinach wilts and the tomato softens.
- Whisk the Eggs: In a bowl, beat the eggs with salt, black pepper, and oregano.
- Cook the Eggs: Pour the eggs into the skillet and gently stir with a spatula to scramble them. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.

- Serve: Enjoy warm, with whole-grain toast or pita bread for an authentic Mediterranean experience.
