A great savory snack!
I am very fond of these frozen Spanakopita. They are a little decadent, pretty healthy, cheap, and easy to make. I almost always have them readily available in my freezer if I get a bit peckish during the day, or if I want an h'or d'oeuvres dinner a la Mrs. Flax/Cher in "Mermaids" (which is often). I am impressed by the fact that they do not taste like a pre-fab treat! This seems to be a running theme with Trader Joes, as they offer many cheap, tasty and extremely high-quality products which are very convenient to prepare. More bang for your buck, as they say. Now, I'm not claiming they're authentic, as I have never been to Greece, nor have I ever sampled authentic Greek pastries. But I do think they're incredibly delicious! These spanakopita would be perfect for someone watching their calories - one little triangle has only 60, and they're made with satisfyingly whole ingredients. Who wouldn't want to eat something with whole-fat cheese, yoghurt and butter in it and *still* be able to lose weight?? Great for anyone! A tasty treat!
