6 servings
- 1 tsp extra virgin olive oil, plus more for greasing
- 3 cups fresh baby spinach, roughly chopped
- 3 scallions (green tops only), thinly sliced
Ingredient noteScallions are the mildest of the onion family, and only a small amount is used here. That is likely fine for most people with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid scallions, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
Chef's tipSwap it in for an equal amount of the oil or butter the recipe cooks with - do not add it on top of the existing fat. - 8 large eggs
- ¼ cup unsweetened almond milk
- ½ tsp ground turmeric
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Ingredient noteBlack pepper can worsen reflux in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (less than 1/8 teaspoon per serving) is likely tolerated by many with GERD. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- ¼ tsp salt
- ½ cup crumbled feta cheese
- 2 tbsp fresh dill, chopped (optional)

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.
