Packed with protein and all the right flavors.
Its no secret that spinach pie (aka spanakopita) is my love language. I grew up eating it all the time, homemade, everything from scratch. My family never used store bought phyllo. And it was the bomb to say the least. Indescribable. I, however love to create simple recipes that aren’t as time consuming but are still really delicious.
Make sure you pick up a large burrito sized tortilla, flour, low carb, spinach; any kind you prefer. My baking dish was 10×7 inches in size and I baked it in my mini convection oven.
If you like this simple dish, you will enjoy my Baked Egg Tortilla Supreme or my Baked Egg Zucchini Tortilla.

Baked Spanakopita Tortilla
Prep Time: 10 mins
Cook Time: 20 mins
Total Time: 30 mins
Ingredients
- 1 large burrito size tortilla
- 1 tbs olive oil
- 2 handfuls baby spinach, rough chop
- 2 scallions, chopped
- salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbs dill, chopped
- 3 eggs
- 1 oz feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 handful shredded mozzarella cheese
- garnish: chili pepper flakes
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 400° F. Lightly spray a small baking dish with olive oil. My dish was 10×7 inches.
- In a skillet, heat the olive oil and saute your scallions for 1 minute. Add in the baby spinach and toss to mostly wilt. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the dill and remove from pan. Pat dry with paper towel to remove any excess moisture.
- Place the tortilla into the dish with the edges coming up against the sides of the dish. Add in the eggs and season with salt and pepper to taste. Spread out the spinach mixture over the whites, crumble on the feta and the mozzarella cheese. Bake for 17-20 minutes or until set to your desired doneness. Remove from the pan and slice in half or quarters. Top with chili pepper flakes and enjoy.
