WEEKNIGHT SKILLET SPINACH PIE
I love sneaking extra veggies into my kids' dinners, especially with this skillet spinach pie recipe. With a flaky crust and extra cheese, the kids never know they're eating a vitamin-rich dish and I'm not hovering over an oven for hours. Put the spinach and phyllo sheets in the refrigerator the night before or early in the morning for thawing. -Kristyne McDougle, Lorain, Ohio
