Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line two half-sheet pans with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixer with the paddle, beat the feta, ricotta, eggs, salt, pepper and dill until combined.
  3. Add the scallions and beat until combined.
  4. With the mixer on low, add the chopped spinach a handful at a time until all is mixed in. Finish mixing with a spatula and set aside.
  5. Cut the phyllo, still rolled in its packaging, into three equal portions. Unwrap one and keep the others covered so they don't dry out.
  6. Work with two sheets of phyllo at a time, brushing melted butter between the layers and on top.
  7. Place a tablespoon of filling at the bottom of the strip and fold it up into a triangle, flag-style.
  8. Arrange the triangles on the trays and continue until the filling or phyllo runs out.
  9. Brush the tops with melted butter, sprinkle with salt, and bake about 40 minutes until golden.
