This is a variation on a Greek favourite Spanikopita that is made in a lasagna or casserole tray instead of individual size (read: less work to make for group occaisons). I actually think it gets better with age, and my favourite time to eat it is (cold) for lunch the next day. Delish!A great vegetarian option for visiting freinds, or a way to get a serving of spinach into those who usually rebel! Popeye would be proud :)
