Spinach Pie



I can never pronounce Spanakopita, so I always just say "spinach pie." I've had this recipe in my vegweb recipe box for ages. I always forget to buy phyllo dough.

I used extra firm water-packed tofu, instead of silken. I think next time I will use the silken instead though. I also used fresh spinach, instead of frozen, and I chopped half of it so it would be easier to stir around.

It turned out pretty well, for my first time, I think. Next time I will use more lemon and more spinach.

Yummy! I love Spanakopita and lately I've been so into Phyllo Dough- i just stuff it with anything we have in the fridge! Your middle eastern dish looks great too- I'll have to try Mazza. We love going to Cafe Med on 33rd and 420 east. We should get together soon and cook a good veg. meal. Do you guys like wine??
