Spanakopita Casserole Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Rinse and drain spinach. Put the spinach in a large pot with no additional water (the water clinging to the leaves from rinsing will be enough), and cover and steam it over medium heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Drain the spinach in a colander. While it's cooling, heat the olive oil in a skillet. Add the red and green onions and sauté until tender - about 10 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Squeeze the excess water out of the spinach leaves, chop them coarsely (if you have kitchen shears, you can cut up the spinach right in the colander), and put the spinach in a mixing bowl. Add the onions, ricotta cheese, eggs, herbs and spices and stir well. Mix in the feta cheese last so it will stay fairly chunky.
• Place in a greased 9x9 pan. Bake at 350°F for approximately 45 minutes (until firm). Cut into 8 pieces.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine the cottage cheese, spinach and feta cheese. Stir in the flour, pepper and salt. Add eggs and mix well. , Spoon into a greased 9-in. square baking dish. Bake, uncovered, until a thermometer reads 160°, about 1 hour.

Steps:

• 1. Mix first 8 ingredients together.
• 2. Butter the bottom of 9" X 13" baking pan. Place 4 phylo leaves on bottom, buttering after each leave.
• 3. Place half of the spinach mix on phylo leaves and then place 4 more leaves on top of spinach, buttering after each leaf. Place remainder of spinach and place one more phylo leaf on the very top. (For a thicker and flakier crust, add more phylo leaves on top.) Sprinkle with butter. Turn phylo at edges towards rim of the pan. Bake in moderately hot oven, 375 degrees for 30 minutes or until golden brown.
