About Spanacopita
Spanakopita is a savory Greek pastry made of crispy layers of phyllo dough filled with a rich mixture of spinach, feta cheese, onions, and fresh herbs like dill and parsley. Known for its flaky texture and vibrant flavor, it has roots in traditional Mediterranean cuisine, where wholesome ingredients are celebrated. Spinach provides a wealth of nutrients, including iron, calcium, and vitamin K, while feta cheese contributes protein and calcium. Herbs add antioxidants, elevating its nutritional profile. However, the phyllo dough, often brushed with butter or oil, can increase its fat and calorie content, making moderation key for those watching their dietary intake. Spanakopita can be enjoyed as an appetizer, snack, or light meal and provides a delicious way to incorporate leafy greens into your diet while savoring the culinary heritage of Greece.
