Un-Spanakopita

Since I have to cut down on carbs and fats, I am experimenting with stuff I love in a healthy way. I love spanakopita. Love, love, love it! However, butter filled phyllo dough is right out for my diet, so here is a more healthy alternative that makes a good dinner. You could also let it cool, then cut it into smaller pieces as an appetizer.

Ingredients:

2T olive oil
1 onion, chopped
1 clove garlic
2T white wine
1T dill weed
1T flour
10oz frozen spinach, thawed and drained
4 eggs, beaten
1 c. brown rice, cooked
4oz feta cheese, crumbled

Directions:

Heat oven to 350 degrees. In a frying pan, heat oil and saute onion until translucent. Add garlic, dill weed, and white wine and cook until vegetables are soft. Add four and spinach, and continue cooking until slightly thickened, then remove from heat and allow to cool. In another bowl, beat eggs, brown rice and cheese together. Fold in cooled spinach mixture to the egg/cheese/rice mixture. Pour into a greased 9x13" pan and bake for 30 minutes, or until firm.
