Tip’s Spanakopita (Spinach Pie), If you don’t like spinach, think again! I got this recipe from a Greek internet friend back in the early 90’s who owns a diner out in Long Island I made it a bit healthier by using non-stick cooking spray Love spanakopita? try Recipe #329117 :), This was so good! Thanks for setting up this project during our visit, otherwise I might have been scared off by the 5 boxes of spinach You also showed that this recipe isn’t fussy about the proportions of cheeses I guess there really is no better way to get the water out of the spinach than pressing it with your hands Some tasks just require a little bit of patience Thank you for this keeper!, LOVE Spanakopita; LOVED this Spanakopita Loved the blend of cheeses and the inclusion of parsley and dill, and the fact that this was a low-fat recipe Like KITTENCAL, I had to add garlic and I also added pine nuts as I love them with spinach and love the textural variation they provide 🙂 I otherwise followed the recipe exactly and wouldn’t want to change a thing Because this was so delicious, I was SO glad that I hadn’t halved the recipe We enjoyed this immensely over several nights – and for lunches Thank you for sharing yet another super recipe Made for PRMR
