Make It Now Cooking Directions

These directions are for cooking this recipe to serve immediately and NOT to freeze for later.

1. Heat olive oil #1 in a large saute pan over medium heat.
2. Add onions and spinach and saute until onions are tender and spinach is wilted and has released excess moisture.
3. Stir in parsley, dill, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Set aside to cool.
4. In a large mixing bowl combine feta, ricotta, and eggs.
5. When spinach is cooled, combine with cheese mixture.
6. Unroll phyllo and cut into rectangular strips about 4 inches wide.
7. Lay out one sheet of phyllo and brush lightly with olive oil. Lay another sheet on top and brush lightly with olive oil again.
8. Place 1/4 cup of spinach/cheese mixture at the end of the rectangle and fold over so it forms a triangle. Continue folding in a triangular fashion until the dough is all rolled up (similar to folding a paper football). You should end up with a triangular pocket filled with spinach/cheese mixture.
9. Brush the spanakopita with olive oil on both sides and place on a cookie sheet.
10. Repeat until you have used up all of the filling.
11. Bake a full sheet of triangles at 350 for 20-25 minutes, until golden brown.
