Preparing the Vegetables
Start by heating the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 2‑3 minutes until translucent, then stir in the minced garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook for an additional 30 seconds, just until fragrant, being careful not to let the garlic brown.
Cooking the Spinach
Add the chopped spinach to the skillet, tossing constantly. It will wilt dramatically within 1‑2 minutes. Once the excess liquid evaporates, remove the pan from heat and set the mixture aside to cool slightly—this prevents the eggs from scrambling when combined.
