spicy green eggs with feta.

Spicy Green Eggs with Feta Ingredients : 2 large handfuls spinach, roughly chopped ½ small courgette, grated and squeezed of excess liquid 2 spring onions, finely sliced 2 tbsp fresh dill or parsley, chopped 70g feta, crumbled 4 eggs 6–8 slices (or more if want it more spicy) jarred jalapeños, finely chopped Olive oil spray or drizzle of olive oil ½ tsp garlic salt Black pepper, to taste Toast or flatbread, to serve Method: Preheat oven or air fryer to 190°C fan. Lightly oil 2 ovenproof ramekins or one medium dish. Add spinach, courgette, spring onion, dill, jalapeños, and most of the feta. Mix roughly. Crack in the eggs (2 per ramekin, or 4 in one dish), sprinkle with remaining feta, and season with garlic salt and pepper. Bake/air fry until the whites are just set and yolks still soft — about 6–8 minutes in ramekins or 10–12 minutes in a larger dish. Serve warm with toast or flatbread.     Gut Health Benefits Spinach and courgette both support gut health in different ways. Spinach is rich in insoluble fibre, which adds bulk to stool and helps maintain regular digestion, while also providing antioxidants that protect the gut lining. Courgette contains a mix of soluble and insoluble fibre – the soluble fibre acts as a gentle prebiotic to feed beneficial bacteria, and its high water content helps keep digestion smooth and comfortable.
