Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 12 sheets Phyllo dough sheets
- 6 cups Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Feta cheese
- 4 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 medium Yellow onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Dill, chopped (fresh or dried)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3-4 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the feta cheese, cream cheese, dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix until smooth.
Fold the cooled spinach mixture into the cheese mixture, stirring until fully combined.
Unroll the phyllo dough sheets and keep them covered with a slightly damp towel to prevent drying out.
Take one sheet of phyllo dough and brush it lightly with melted butter. Place another sheet on top and brush it with melted butter as well.
Cut the phyllo sheets lengthwise into 3 equal strips.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the spinach mixture at one end of each strip. Fold one corner of the phyllo strip over the filling to form a triangle, then continue folding like a flag down the length of the strip, keeping the triangular shape.
Repeat with the remaining phyllo sheets and filling.
Place the roll-ups on the prepared baking sheet and brush the tops with melted butter.
Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy.
Allow the roll-ups to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy warm as a delicious appetizer or snack!
