Spinach Pies

Ingrients & Directions


=== FILLING ===
2 pk Frozen chopped spinach;
-thawed, squeezed dry
4 Eggs
1/2 lb Feta cheese; crumbled
1 bn Green onions; chopped
1/4 c Chopped fresh parsley
1/4 c Chopped fresh dill
(or 1 tablespoon dried dill)
=== THE PIES ===
1 lb Prepared phyllo dough -; (1
-pkg)
1/2 lb Butter; melted

Mix the ingredients for the filling. Now calm down. These are really easy
to make. Put a couple of sheets of waxed paper on your counter. Open the
phyllo package and unwrap the dough. Now you must work quickly as the dough
will dry out in very little time. Place a sheet of dough on the counter and
quickly brush it with some of the melted butter. Place another sheet on top
of the first and brush it with a little more butter. Place 2 tablespoons of
filling at the narrow end of the dough and begin to roll it up in the
dough. Use wide rolls rather than narrow ones. After two rolls, fold one
side to the center. Roll one more time and fold the other side to the
center, thus giving you a neat package. Continue rolling and place the
package, seam side down, on an oiled baking sheet. Brush the top with more
butter and continue with the next one. Bake at 400 degrees for 25 to 30
minutes or until the pies are a light golden brown. Serve warm. This recipe
makes 8 to 10 pies.

Comments: This is a very famous dish in Greece. Spinach and dill, along
with the cheese, make a supberb filling for the phyllo bundle.
