Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the thawed and drained spinach, crumbled feta, ricotta, eggs, chopped dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined and set aside.
Brush a 9x13-inch (23x33 cm) baking dish with a small amount of olive oil.
Lay one sheet of phyllo dough in the bottom of the dish and brush it lightly with olive oil. Repeat this process with 5 sheets, brushing each layer with olive oil and allowing the edges to hang over the sides of the dish.
Spread the spinach and feta mixture evenly over the layered phyllo sheets.
Fold the overhanging edges of the phyllo over the filling.
Layer the remaining 5 sheets of phyllo on top of the filling, brushing each layer lightly with olive oil. Tuck the edges neatly into the dish to seal the pie.
Using a sharp knife, score the top layer of phyllo into desired portions (e.g., rectangles or triangles) to make cutting easier after baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, or until the phyllo is golden brown and crispy.
Remove the pie from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
