Grilled Spinach and Feta Bites

Preheat grill to medium-high heat.

In a large bowl, combine spinach, feta cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, lemon zest, minced garlic, red pepper flakes (if using), salt, and pepper. Toss well to coat the spinach evenly.

Using tongs, carefully arrange small portions of the spinach mixture directly on the hot grill grates. You can also use a grill basket if desired to prevent spinach from falling through.

Grill for 2-3 minutes per side, or until the spinach is slightly wilted and has some char marks. Be careful not to overcook, as the spinach can become bitter.

Remove from the grill and serve immediately as an appetizer. Garnish with extra feta cheese and a squeeze of lemon juice, if desired.
