Preparation
  1. Whisk eggs and Lemon Dilly together in a medium mixing bowl. Add onion, feta, cottage cheese and spinach. Combine well.
  2. Preheat oven to 375° F (190° C).
  3. Phyllo sheets are usually 16” x 22”. Carefully unroll and cover with a clean, damp tea towel. To assemble, lay out 1 sheet and brush lightly with melted butter. Place second sheet on top of first. Using a pizza wheel (or very sharp knife) cut 8 equal strips. Place 1 tbsp filling on one end of each strip. Fold one corner of strip to opposite side, forming a triangle and enclosing the filling. Continue folding as you would a flag, to end of strip, maintaining triangular shape.
  4. Once assembled, place on a Sheet Pan lined with a Sheet Pan Liner and bake for 15 minutes.
Tips

Make it a Casserole: Layer phyllo with spinach and cheese filling in a 9" x 13" pan. Brush pastry with melted butter and bake in pre-heated 375° F (190° C) oven for 30–40 minutes, until pastry is golden. Slice and serve cold.

Time-saving Tip: Place a single layer of Mini Spinach Pies on a Sheet Pan lined with a Sheet Pan Liner in the freezer. Once frozen, stack in airtight containers and keep frozen for up to 6 weeks. Bake from frozen on Sheet Pan lined with a Sheet Pan Liner at 350° F (175° C) for 20 minutes.

Serve with 34 cup prepared Lemony Chickpea Salad and prepared Dillicious Tzatziki.
