Weeknight Skillet Spinach Pie image

I love sneaking extra veggies into my kids' dinners, especially with this skillet spinach pie recipe. With a flaky crust and extra cheese, the kids never know they're eating a vitamin-rich dish and I'm not hovering over an oven for hours. Put the spinach and phyllo sheets in the refrigerator the night before or early in the morning for thawing. -Kristyne McDougle, Lorain, Ohio

I made this pie in a cast iron skillet and it turned out great! The crust was perfectly crispy and the filling was cooked evenly. I would definitely recommend using a cast iron skillet if you have one.

This pie was a little too oily for my taste, but it was still good. I think I would try using less olive oil next time.
