 ingredients; stir in spinach.


 


 Place one sheet of phyllo on an ungreased cookie sheet (keep remaining


 phyllo under a damp towel to keep moist.) Brush with melted butter. Put on

 all of the filling.  (You can twist the top ends of the phyllo dough like
a


 Hershey's Kiss or just leave then lying flat over the top.)  Brush with


 remaining butter.  Bake at 350 for 50 minutes or until golden brown.  Cut


 in wedges to serve.
