Spinach Pies

8 oz spinach
Scallions (2), chives (bunch), OR garlic (2-3 cloves), chopped
6 oz feta, crumbled
one egg
1 T dill
black pepper
4 sheets filo (*found hidden among frozen pie crusts in the grocery store, often)
olive oil

Preheat 375.
Blanch spinach and press through sieve with wooden spoon.  Get that water out!
Chop spinach finely and combine with other ingredients.
Lay out one sheet of filo and brush with oil.  Pretend it is a tiny delicate baby.
Lay another on top.  Another baby.  Twins!
Spread a spoonful of filling at one corner and roll up on the diagonal.  Shape into crescents, brush with oil, bake 20 – 25 minutes. 

Eat immediately.  They do not make the best leftovers and usually are too good to beome such anyway.
