Time 1h10m

Yield 15

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 (10 ounce) packages frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
½ cup crumbled feta cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella cheese
½ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 clove garlic, minced
½ teaspoon salt
1 (16 ounce) package whole wheat phyllo dough
½ cup unsalted butter, melted

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Lightly grease a baking sheet. Mix the spinach, feta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic, and salt in a bowl.
  • Arrange one sheet of phyllo dough on a clean work surface and brush with melted butter. Cover the remaining phyllo dough with a damp towel. Place a second sheet of phyllo on top and brush with butter, then place a third sheet on top. Cut the buttered phyllo lengthwise into four strips.
  • Place about 1 tablespoon of the spinach mixture on the bottom of each strip. Take the bottom right corner and fold the dough over the filling to make a triangle. Fold the bottom left corner up to make another triangle. Continue folding until all the dough is folded. Arrange the stuffed triangles, seam-side down, on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly brush the triangle with butter. Repeat with the remaining phyllo dough and spinach filling.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Cool slightly before serving.

This is the best spanikopita recipe I've ever tried! The filling is creamy and flavorful, and the filo dough is perfectly crispy.

I'm not a fan of spanakopita, but I thought this recipe was pretty good. The filo dough was flaky and the filling was flavorful.

This recipe was a disaster! The filo dough was too thick and the filling was bland. I won't be making this again.

The spanikopita was good, but I found it to be a bit too oily. Next time, I'll try using less olive oil.

I've made this spanikopita recipe several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The flaky filo dough and the creamy spinach and feta filling are to die for.

This spanikopita recipe was a hit at my last party! The combination of spinach, feta, and filo dough was perfect, and the dish was easy to make. I'll definitely be making this again.
