Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 3 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add 3 finely sliced green onions and sauté for 2 minutes until softened. Add 12 oz chopped fresh spinach and cook for 5 minutes until wilted and most moisture evaporates. Remove from heat.
  2. Step 2: Transfer spinach mixture to a large bowl. Stir in 8 oz crumbled feta cheese, 2 tbsp chopped fresh dill, 1/2 tsp salt, and 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper. Allow to cool.
  3. Step 3: Preheat oven to 350°F. Lay 1 sheet of phyllo dough on a clean surface and brush lightly with olive oil. Place another sheet on top and brush again. Cut stacked phyllo into 3-inch wide strips.
  4. Step 4: Place about 2 tbsp of spinach and feta filling at one end of each strip. Fold the corner over the filling to form a triangle, then continue folding the triangle along the strip until sealed.
  5. Step 5: Arrange the triangles on a baking sheet, brush tops with beaten egg, and bake for 20-25 minutes until golden brown and crisp. Serve warm.
