Spanakopita Recipe (Greek Spinach Pie)

If you have never had Spanakopita, you are in for a treat! Spanakopita is a delectable savory Greek pie prepared with wonderfully crispy layers of phyllo pastry and a hearty filling of spinach and feta. 

I'm providing my family's favorite spanakopita recipe, along with instructions, a video, and step-by-step images. Believe me, this is lot easier to make than you think!

Spanakopita is an excellent side dish for large holiday parties, serving either lamb or lemon chicken. However, it can easily stand alone as the main course.

Serve it with a large salad, such as Greek salad, Balela, or Mediterranean chickpea salad, and your favorite dips, such as Greek Tzatziki or Roasted Garlic Hummus.

When I was at an Atlanta Greek festival a few weeks ago, my daughter's lunch pick was a piece of spanakopita with a side of Greek salad. Fortunately, she offered me a sample; it was amazing! 

I ended up talking to Yiayia Helen, the woman behind the expensive lunch. We talked about family recipes and offered spanakopita lessons and recommendations.
