Ingredients

Scale

Spinach Mixture

  • 4 cups fresh spinach, chopped
  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Prepare the ingredients: Wash and chop the fresh spinach finely to ensure even distribution in the casserole. Crumble the feta cheese into small pieces for a consistent flavor throughout the dish.
  2. Mix ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, crumbled feta, eggs, and milk. Stir thoroughly until the mixture is homogeneous and all ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. Preheat the oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to allow it to reach the proper baking temperature while you prepare the casserole dish.
  4. Transfer and bake: Pour the spinach mixture into a greased or lightly buttered casserole dish, spreading it evenly. Place the dish in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the casserole is firm to the touch and slightly golden on top.
  5. Cool and serve: Remove the casserole from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes to set. Cut into portions and serve warm as a side dish or a light main course.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can substitute half the milk with cream or add a pinch of nutmeg.
  • Use fresh spinach for the best texture and taste; frozen spinach can be used if properly thawed and drained.
  • This casserole can be refrigerated for up to 3 days and reheated gently in the microwave or oven.
  • Adding herbs like dill or oregano can enhance the flavor profile.
