🧀🌿 Mediterranean Spinach and Feta Crisps

Crispy, golden pastry filled with a savory spinach-and-feta mixture, seasoned with herbs and garlic. Light, flavorful, and irresistibly crunchy!

⭐ Ingredients (Makes 12–16 crisps)

Filling

2 cups fresh spinach, chopped (or 1 cup cooked/drained)
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
½ cup shredded mozzarella (optional, for extra meltiness)
1 small onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp dried dill (optional but very Mediterranean)
Salt & black pepper to taste
1–2 tbsp olive oil (for sautéing)

Pastry

1 package puff pastry or phyllo pastry sheets
2–3 tbsp melted butter or olive oil (for brushing)

🔥 Instructions

1. Make the Filling

Heat olive oil in a pan; sauté onion until soft.
Add garlic and cook 1 minute.
Add spinach and cook until wilted (or warm through if using pre-cooked).
Remove from heat and let cool slightly.
Stir in feta, mozzarella (if using), oregano, dill, salt, and pepper.

2. Prepare the Pastry

If using Puff Pastry:

Cut into squares (3–4 inches).

If using Phyllo:

Layer 3 sheets of phyllo, brushing lightly with butter/oil between each.
Cut layered sheet into squares.

3. Assemble the Crisps

Add a spoonful of spinach-feta filling to each square.
Fold into triangles or rectangles and press edges to seal.
Brush tops lightly with melted butter or olive oil.

4. Bake

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
Bake 15–20 minutes (puff pastry) or 12–15 minutes (phyllo)
until crispy and golden.

5. Serve

Serve warm with:

Tzatziki
Garlic yogurt dip
Marinara
Lemon wedges

💡 Tips

✔ Squeeze spinach dry so the filling stays crisp.
✔ Add red pepper flakes for a spicy Mediterranean twist.
✔ Use phyllo for ultra-crispy layers; puff pastry for a softer, buttery texture.
✔ Can be frozen before baking — bake straight from frozen.
