Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

While peppers bake, heat 1 tsp olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Add minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add spinach and cook for 3–4 minutes until fully wilted.
Remove skillet from heat. Stir in crumbled feta until combined.
Spoon filling into each softened pepper half (about ¼ cup per half).
