2 Tablespoons olive oil
1 lb fresh baby spinach
1 lemon
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon black pepper
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
¼ cup feta cheese

Instructions

Add the olive oil and spinach to a large pan over medium heat.

Juice the lemon, then add the fresh lemon juice, salt, pepper and red pepper flakes to the pan, stirring to combine.
Sprinkle the feta over the spinach and serve immediately.
