Crack the eggs into a medium-sized bowl. Add milk, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until the mixture is well combined and slightly frothy.
Clean the mushrooms by brushing off any dirt and slice them thinly. Mince the garlic clove.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mushrooms become golden brown and soft.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, just until the spinach has wilted.
Reduce the heat to low and pour in the egg mixture. Let it sit without stirring for about 30 seconds.
Using a spatula, gently stir the eggs, folding the cooked portions over the raw ones until the eggs start to form creamy curds.
Once the eggs are set but still soft and moist, add the crumbled feta cheese and fold it into the eggs.
Remove the skillet from the heat and give it one last gentle stir. Taste and adjust seasoning with more salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the scrambled eggs immediately, garnished with freshly chopped chives.
