Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350ºF.  Spray 30 muffin cups with cooking spray; set aside. 

  2. Unroll phyllo dough. Lay one sheet of phyllo dough on a flat surface. (Keep remaining phyllo covered with a clean dish towel as you work.) Spray an even layer of cooking spray over entire sheet and top with another phyllo sheet. Continue with four more phyllo sheets to make a six-layer stack. With a sharp knife, cut phyllo stack into 12 squares. Press each phyllo square into a muffin cup. Repeat with another six sheets of the phyllo. Halve the remaining three phyllo sheets crosswise. Use halved sheets to make another phyllo stack; cut this stack into six squares and press each into a muffin cup.

  3. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove and set aside. 

  4. In a large bowl, combine spinach, feta cheese, olives, egg, yogurt, Greek seasoning, and lemon juice until well mixed. Spoon about 1 tablespoon spinach mixture into each phyllo cup. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes more or until heated through. Serve immediately.
