- 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
- Salt

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Grease a muffin tin with cooking spray or line it with paper liners.
- In a large mixing bowl, crack 6 large eggs and whisk them until well combined. Add a splash of milk (about ¼ cup) and whisk again.
- Fold in about 1 cup of fresh spinach (chopped) and ½ cup of crumbled feta cheese into the egg mixture. Add any additional vegetables if desired.
