Will definitely make it again, but with some alterations. I used 1/2 the spinach so it stayed good and cheesy, but I should have cut the breadcrumbs too (way too much). Next time I'm adding garlic and taking out the poultry seasoning (made it taste like stuffing to me). Note: tastes great the day you make it, but loses its appeal the next day as leftovers.

I liked it..but changed it a bit- used mozzarella instead of feta, omitted the dill and poultry seasoning and added four eggs to make it 'cuttable' ...it was delicious! oh, and I used frozen spinach without any problems, I just made sure that I defrosted it and squeezed all of the water out.

This is such a flavorful dish, you wouldn't know you were eating spinach! Rather than going to the extra effort of buying or making a pie crust, we just baked it in a shallow casserole dish. The only change I made, was using ricotta cheese rather than cottage. It's a little on the salty side, so, if watching your salt, cut back a bit on the poultry seasoning. I used the left overs the next day in an omlette and it was amazing! Will definately make again and again and again. This may replace the boring green bean casserole at Thanksgiving!

A nice light dish, good with soup. It's kind of like a warm salad. Oh yeah, and note to self: next time don't use frozen spinach....

This did not turn out at all like I expected. It would probably be ok as a way to make spinach as a side dish to a meal, but to just have this as a main thing (or as an appetizer, as was my plan), and it's just way to spinach-y. It hardly comes out cheesy at all. Also, I was hoping to be able to cut small squares and let people eat with hands as appetizer -- no go on that.

Very yummy! Only when I make it, I use about 1/2 of the ammount of bread crumbs the recipe calls for. I prefer to taste the spinach and cheeses most and the crust least. This is a very quick and easy alternative to spanikopita!

Easy and close to authentic Greek dish. I made it once as the recipe suggests, and a few other times with premade pie crust without breadcrumbs & butter, but they both came out great. #1 Vegetarian Crowd pleaser.

This was great! I substituted oregano and the juice of 1/2 a lemon and bit of lemon zest for the dill and poultry seasoning to create a bit more of a spanikopita Greek flavor. It turned out wonderfully! I may add a beaten egg or two next time to hold the spinach mixture together a bit more though.

First, i shall reduce the amount of the spinach, then followed with add more eggs. here i use 5 med eggs but the spinach i used was almost 2 pounds. Mix 2 kinda cheese; Ricotta & Cottage together. I omit the dill instead of oregano, black pepper, nutmeg, salt, pinch of poultry seasoning and i only use garlic (since my hubby doesn't like onion). Last, i accompany this pie with slices of Foccasia bread & red wine!...Hemmmmm..mama mia...

I followed the advice of a few reviewers (and my own instincts) and made a few changes: I cut the spinach in half and the breadcrumbs in half; I added 2 eggs to make it cuttable; I skipped the dill and poultry seasoning and instead added 1 teaspoon minced garlic; I also substituted 15 ounces of ricotta for the 8 ounces of cottage cheese.
