Directions
Spanakopitakia (Little Spinach Pies), Great to make up ahead and freeze Bake and serve as needed , These were a good starting point I prefer a larger ratio of feta to spinach My dh took one bite and spit it out because it was too spinachy for him Next time I will add a sauteed onion with garlic and at least a whole pound of feta The triangles are cute for an appetizer too!, Excellent! I made a 9 inch pie and a bunch of little triangles Yummy My 10 month old ate 3 of the triangles Very tasty
