Cheese-Spinach Appetizers

 

Spanakopita or spinach pie is a Greek savory pastry. It has a filling of chopped spinach, feta cheese (sometimes in combination with ricotta cheese, as it is less expensive, and adds creaminess), onions or scallions, egg, and seasoning. The pastry is golden in color when baked, the color often enhanced by butter and egg yolk. (Wikipedia)

  • 2 eggs
  • 6 tablespoons   whole-grain wheat flour
  • 1 1/2  cups feta/ricotta/cheddar cheese — shredded

  • 2 cups cottage cheese
  • 1 pinch ground nutmeg
  • 1 dash black pepper — fresh ground
