DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Lightly grease a medium baking sheet.
In a large bowl, mix spinach, cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, Monterey Jack cheese, egg, and onion. Spread half the mixture over each phyllo pastry sheet. Roll pastry sheets jelly-roll fashion, pinch ends to seal, and arrange on the prepared baking sheet.
Make a few small slits in the top of each rolled pastry sheet. Bake 40 minutes in the preheated oven, until golden brown.

This is very tasty, attractive and easy for a quick spinach pie. Just remember to allow time for the spinach to thaw. I will be making this again!

This was one of the best things I've ever made! Thanks for the recipe. It was a hit with everyone, including those who don't like veggie items.

this was really good but i felt like it needed a little something more... maybe it was the onions that i left out. i added garlic to the spinach mixture thought. i will make this again definitely and add the onions.

I made this dish for my parents a few weekends ago. My dad, who is a huge lover of greek food (and NEVER gives compliments on food) woofed this dish down. My mom said he spoke about it all the way home that evening! My husband even gave out a compliment! Great dish! Thanks.

Excellent! I served this when my mom wasn't hungry and she devoured it! Hubby even loved it. I can't wait to make it again. I made 4 "loaves" instead of 2 big ones. Extremely easy to make as well!

Yummy! My husband loved this, he even finished all the leftovers within a day... that's a first in my house. I did add a little bit of feta cheese to it, we like the traditional greek flavor.

I followed the recipe exactly, but I felt it was too heavy with cheese and the onion was surprisingly powerful. I didn't think when I was adding onion that it was that much, but I think since it wasn't cooked first it dominated the flavor. This was the first time I used phyllo dough, so I wasn't expecting it to be perfect, and it wasn't. I rolled it up tightly, and scored it on top, but the contents still spilled out when it baked. Not pretty. up.

This was an amazing recipe! It was so simple and it literally took mere minutes to throw together. I don't think it really matters what kind of cheese you use. I used fresh spinach and this still tasted great. It also makes for great leftovers. I made it all for myself and it was my lunch for an entire week (plus dinner once or twice - depending on serving size, of course, but a little bit will do ya!) I will definitely try this again. I might add mushrooms to it or potatoes - it was really that versatile. Didn't use phyllo dough, per se, but I used "baking pastry dough" - it's basically the same thing. Can't recommend enough!

I'm not even a fan of spinach pie, but this was yummy! I substituted ricotta cheese for the cottage cheese, and used a mixture of parmesan and asiago cheeses instead of using all parmesan, and the flavor was incredible. I also had a lot of trouble working with the phyllo dough, so I may make this as a quiche next time and top with sliced tomato. Thanks for the great recipe - definitely a keeper!
