Real Food for Real (Kosher) People

Before I got married, I ate crap. There's no other way to describe it. My only vegetable intake was bag lettuce and frozen green beans. Enter my husband. His mother worked in a health-food store and I believe he ate mostly nuts and seeds growing up. Since we've been married, I eat way more vegetables in greater variety. We strive to eat seasonally, as well, so that our kids are less likely to be turned off fruit by eating a sour orange or mealy apple.

Here's the first meal of many I hope to post that are delicious, easy, and nutritious.

Spinach-Feta Pie

*10 sheets phyllo dough
*melted butter enough to brush each sheet (olive oil would be a likely substitute) and more for sauteing the garlic and onion
*1 bag Europe's Best Chef Style spinach (prob. equiv. to 2 frozen blocks or 2 large bunches of fresh)
*2 cloves crushed garlic
*1 onion, chopped
*1 Tbsp dill
*8 oz feta
*salt to taste

1. Thaw phyllo dough a few hours ahead.
2. Preheat oven to 350.
3. Saute garlic and onion in butter over low heat. Add spinach. I threw the frozen mini-blocks right in and covered the pan with a lid for several minutes, but thaw ahead if you'd like. Add dill, feta, and salt.
4. Brush 10 sheets of phyllo with melted butter and arrange 5 in a pie pan or 9x9 pyrex dish. Pour in spinach mixture. Add remaining 5 sheets of phyllo on top of spinach and roll the overlapping edges to form a "rope" of crust (see photo).
5. Bake at 350 for 30ish minutes. You could also cover the whole thing with plastic wrap and freeze at the point and thaw/bake later.
