Anti Inflammatory Spinach and Feta Egg Muffins
These little egg muffins are the kind of meal-prep win that makes the whole week feel more manageable — savory, satisfying, and genuinely good for you. Fresh baby spinach, garlic, and scallion greens get sautéed until silky before joining a turmeric-kissed egg base, and the result is a deeply flavorful bite that doesn't taste like it's trying to be healthy. Turmeric and black pepper are a classic pairing for a reason — the pepper helps your body absorb the active compounds in turmeric, so that golden hue is doing real work here. Crumbled feta adds a briny, creamy contrast that keeps every muffin interesting, and a handful of fresh dill takes the whole thing somewhere bright and herbaceous. The recipe makes 12 muffins to serve 6, so they're perfect for sharing at brunch or stashing in the fridge for grab-and-go breakfasts throughout the week. Extra virgin olive oil, almond milk, and whole eggs keep the ingredient list clean and free of anything that would undermine your goals. Warm from the oven or straight from the fridge, these are the kind of thing you'll find yourself making on repeat.

Heat 1 tsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute — watch closely so it doesn't brown. Add the spinach and scallion greens and cook, stirring, until the spinach is fully wilted and any liquid has evaporated, about 2–3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool for 5 minutes.
