\n\nSpinach has a lot of health benefits and is considered by many to be a super food. It is nutrient-dense, providing more nutrients while at the same time being low in calories. Some studies have shown that cooking spinach increases its health benefits making its nutrients much easier to absorb. In short, spinach is good for most of us.<\/p>\n
That however, is not the only reason we eat spinach. Cooked well, it is very tasty and brings depth to many dishes. In this recipe, we sauteed the spinach with olive oil, onions, fresh tomatoes, fresh parsley, and spices. That delicious combination became the filling and it was encased in a soft, tender dough.

Another spinach dish that we regularly prepare is the Spinach, Carrots, & Potatoes recipe we posted before. We like using it as a side dish and it is the reason you will find it in our fridge most days. That spinach recipe will also work great as a filling for these fatayer. The spinach is less prominent in the filling which will make it more appealing to those who are not too fond of spinach.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
