About Spanikopita

Spanakopita is a traditional Greek pastry known for its flaky layers and savory filling. Made with phyllo dough, spinach, feta cheese, onions, and herbs like dill or parsley, this dish offers a taste of Mediterranean cuisine. It is typically baked to golden perfection, with each bite delivering a satisfying combination of crispy texture and rich, creamy flavors. Spinach is packed with vitamins A, C, and K, as well as iron and antioxidants, making it a nutrient-dense ingredient. Feta cheese adds calcium and protein but is relatively high in sodium and fat. While phyllo dough contributes to the light, crispy texture, it can be calorie-dense when butter or oil is used between layers. Spanikopita can be a wholesome choice when enjoyed in moderation, particularly for those seeking a vegetarian option rich in vitamins and minerals while balancing fat and calories in portion-controlled servings.
