This recipe was a favorite when I was growing up. I tend to make it when I'm feeling like home cooking.

I LOVE spinach pie. I will try your mom's recipe ASAP.


Me too!


Ohh, Sounds delicious! I make one very similar but instead of the motzzerella and ricotta I use garlic and herb fetta. I am going to try this recipe too:)


This sound wonderful! I was wondering if Swiss Chard would work here too?
Either way this is a keeper.

Add 2 cloves of garlic to onions and use garlic herb fetta instead of the mozzerella and ricotta.
