I made this for Christmas Eve and it was a huge hit, even with family members who 'hate' spinach. It mades a TON and there were no leftovers. It was my first time working with phyllo dough, and it was definitely time consuming, but gets easier with each wrap you make.

This receipe is wonderful, but you have to make it your own...I don't use scallions or dill and I used CREAMED SPINACH so that it would not be so dry and I also used a couple of pinches of nutmeg in the creamed spinach...I also add in chopped chicken (cooked and seasoned with cumin...this really bumps up the mediterranean flavor. I roll my spanikopita and renamed the dish Turkish Cigars :

This is the perfect recipe! I made this for a bridal shower, and it was a hit. It was the first time that I have ever used phyllo dough, and it worked perfectly. The only changes that I made were that I didn't add dill and I only used 8 sheets per roll. The the scallions were a wonderful addition! This is my new favorite party dish.

Very Tasty! However, I'm not sure why the recipe calls for 10 sheets when Ina used 4 sheets in the show. I used 4 layers and everything was perfect!

I switched it up with some ideas from Bobby Flay and it was amazing. I now make hords of spanikopita and freeze them.

This is my new go-to appetizer! I love how easy this is to prepare and present. It is delicious! I use a less oil, 2 eggs, and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Even spinach haters love this one!

I think that there is a little common sense in cooking. I really like this recipe, I never knew it was this easy to make spanokopitas. I don't use half a cup of oil, I do think it is too much. And I only use 5-6 sheets of dough, it is plenty. Cooking time takes longer too, but everyone's oven is different. If you are thinking of trying out this recipe, DO IT! It's realllly good one!

As a novice cook, I have found that Ina's recipes are not complicated! This recipe is one of my favorites and perfect as is.
Whenever I serve spanokopita, I get the "5 star" reviews.
