Spanakopita is a traditional Greek savory pastry, featuring a filling of spinach, feta cheese, onions, garlic, and fresh herbs such as dill, encased in flaky layers of phyllo dough. A staple of Mediterranean cuisine, it reflects the region's focus on fresh, nutrient-rich ingredients. Spinach provides vitamins A, C, K, and folate, while feta offers protein and calcium. The use of olive oil enhances the dish with heart-healthy fats. While Spanakopita offers nutritional benefits, the phyllo dough layers are brushed with butter or oil, contributing to its rich flavor but adding fat and calories. Enjoyed in moderation, Spanakopita combines wholesome greens and Mediterranean flavors, making it a delicious way to incorporate nutrient-dense vegetables into your diet.
