Cheesepie is a savory dish popular in various cuisines, particularly in Mediterranean, Balkan, and Eastern European regions. While recipes vary, it typically consists of a flaky pastry crust filled with a rich, creamy mixture of cheeses, such as feta, ricotta, or cottage cheese, often combined with eggs and sometimes yogurt. Some versions include herbs like dill or parsley for added flavor. Cheesepie provides a good source of protein and calcium from the cheese and eggs, which contribute to bone health and muscle function. However, it is often high in saturated fats and calories, due to the buttery pastry and cheese content, making it a dish best enjoyed in moderation. Commonly served as a snack, appetizer, or light meal, cheesepie’s combination of a crispy crust and soft, melty center makes it a comfort food favorite across many cultures.
