Spanikopita

Spanikopita is a food that comes from Greece. It is made with something called phyllo dough, which is a thin and crispy type of pastry that is made from flour and water. Inside the phyllo dough is a mixture of spinach and feta cheese, which is very yummy!

To make spanikopita, grown-ups have to mix the spinach and feta cheese together and then put it on top of the phyllo dough. Then, they fold the pastry over and over until it looks like a triangle or a little square. After that, the spanikopita goes in the oven to bake for a little while until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside.

When it's done, the spanikopita is really good to eat! It is a fun and yummy snack that you can enjoy with your family and friends. Just be careful because it may be hot coming out of the oven!
