03 - Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté for 30 seconds. Add spinach and cook until wilted, approximately 2 minutes. Remove excess moisture if needed and let cool slightly.
04 - In a mixing bowl, combine cooled spinach, crumbled feta, cream cheese, Greek yogurt, egg, black pepper, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until well combined and uniform.
05 - Spoon approximately 1 tablespoon of spinach-feta mixture into each pre-baked wonton cup, distributing evenly.
06 - Bake for 8-10 minutes until filling is set and edges of wonton cups are crisp and golden brown.
07 - Allow to cool slightly before garnishing with fresh dill or parsley if desired. Serve warm or at room temperature.
