Steps:

- In a large pan over medium heat, cook the green onions and garlic in the olive oil until soft.

- Once the spinach has cooked down, transfer to a medium mixing bowl to cool slightly.
- Add the feta, ricotta, egg, dill, parsley, salt and pepper, and mix until evenly spread.
- Set in refrigerator.
- Lay out one sheet of phyllo dough on a dry surface. Using a pastry brush, coat evenly with olive oil.

- Cut your dough into 4 sections using a pizza cutter.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- To a large pot, add the olive oil and saute the onions until browned. Add the scallions, dill, nutmeg, black pepper and salt.
- Boil the chopped spinach until blanched and still bright green, stirring occasionally. Mix it together with the ingredients in the pot. Add the crumbled feta cheese and the eggs, making sure that the mixture is slightly cool so the eggs don't scramble. Mix well.
- Brush 1 pound of the phyllo dough with melted butter, piece by piece, layering in a large enough tray to fit the phyllo sheets. Then add the spinach mixture on top and, piece by piece, layer and brush the rest of the phyllo on top. Mark the pieces with a knife and make sure the ends are tucked in, then sprinkle with a little water.
- Bake for 45 minutes, or until golden brown.
MEAT PIES
Steps:
- For the filling:
- Combine the beef and lamb in a large skillet and cook over high heat until browned and well done. Drain and reserve the drippings. Place the meat in a medium mixing bowl.
- Using the same skillet, caramelize the onions in the meat drippings. When the onions are nice and brown, remove them from the drippings and mix into the meat mixture.
- While the onions are caramelizing, preheat a small skillet with the corn oil. Add the pine nuts and toast until golden brown (they burn quickly, so don't walk away from them). Add the nuts to the meat mixture along with the lemon juice, salt, cinnamon and nutmeg and combine well.
- For the dough:
- Dissolve the yeast, salt and sugar in 1 cup of the warm water. Stir to dissolve the yeast. Add the flour to a large mixing bowl, stir in the yeast mixture and combine well. Add additional water, as needed, to make a medium-sized, stiff dough ball. Knead thoroughly. Cut into 2 equal sized dough balls, cover and let stand for 15 minutes.
- Lightly flour a large work surface and roll out each dough ball until approximately 1/8-inch thick. Cut the dough into circles with a 5-inch round cutter. Cover and let stand a second time for 15 minutes. Try to get as many round dough pieces as you can. Any excess dough can be rolled up and saved for more meat pies.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat 2 sheet pans with nonstick cooking spray.
- Working quickly, place 5 of the rounds, at a time, on a separate work surface. Spoon a heaping tablespoon of the meat filling into the center of each round. Grabbing the opposite sides of the circle, pinch together in the middle. Then, pinch the rest of the dough closed, forming a triangular pie. Place on the prepared sheet pans. When all the pies have been formed, place the pans in the preheated oven and bake until the edges and bottoms of each pie begin to brown. Rotate the pans from bottom to top during baking. Bake until the pies are golden brown. Remove to a serving platter and serve.
