Greek Spinach Pie

People talking
Whipping up this savory pie is a cinch when you keep frozen puff pastry on hand. Remember to use a very sharp knife to cut the pastry - if the edges of the dough are pressed together, it won't rise evenly.

Another 5-star Recipezaar recipe that lives up to its reputation the very first time around. And that's even without proper spicing - I had to wing that as I can't find all-purpose Greek seasoning in Holland. Everyone scarfed it down. A keeper!

I made my own creamed spinach for this. It made a lovely meal! Thanks.

We love Greek food at our house and make Spanikopita several times a year, but I wanted to try this because we also enjoy creamed spinach and this sounded like a good way to combine the two dishes. I made my own creamed spinach which has onions and some parmesan so I left out the scallions and I used only three eggs total. We both thought the puff pastry was a nice change from phyllo dough for this dish and hubby wants the entire top covered next time. It was delicious and I will be making it again.

Hi Yhere JackieOhNo, what a great recipe! Made it as stated with another addition; crushed red pepper flakes & a bit of nutmeg for the creamed spinach. The next time that we make it I think I'll try it by using my own creamed spinach otherwise it was just wonderful. Thanks for posting such a great recipe, Manami :) -
This was delicious! The only changes I made was that I used phyllo dough instead of puffed pastry. I also made my own creamed spinach & added a bit of cheddar. I didn't think 4 eggs is quite necessary, so I decreased it to 2.5 (3 total, the half of the 3rd went to glaze the top). The phyllo dough & other changes worked great. This will definitely be a frequent meal in our house!
