My family loves spanakopita, and I have never made it before. I want to surprise them. Does anyone have a good recipe to share? I was thinking of following this one, but I am not sure:

That recipe looks good - it's certainly worth a try! Some tips:

1. Brush the bottom of the pan with butter. Don't use cooking spray or it will get soggy.
2. Follow the recipe all he way through once before making changes.
3. Don't panic about working with phyllo. It's very forgiving so even if it tears and breaks, no one notices in the final product.

Hope this helps!

My mother used to use shallots in hers, and I recall I loved it with dill. My advice is, don't be afraid to experiment with some of the flavors, but I agree that I would definitely follow the recipe as-is once.
