Ingredient Notes

• 1 cup crumbled feta cheese: I prefer a brand that’s rich and creamy. • 2 tablespoons za’atar spice: This mix of herbs, sesame, and salt provides an aromatic zest—feel free to make your own! • 1 pound thin lavash or pita bread: Look for fresh options at local bakeries. • 1/2 cup sautéed spinach: This can be made in advance or using fresh spinach, which adds nutrition and flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, combine crumbled feta and za’atar, mixing until well blended.
  2. Step 2: Layer the sautéed spinach onto your lavash or pita bread, spreading evenly.
  3. Step 3: Spoon the feta mixture over the spinach, then carefully wrap tight to secure all the filling inside.
  4. Step 4: Optional: Lightly brush the outside with olive oil and pan fry in a skillet until golden brown on all sides.

Things I’ve Learned

Make sure to use well-drained feta for a less watery filling. If you have leftovers, they can easily be stored in the fridge for 2-3 days. To reheat, simply place in a skillet on medium heat for a few minutes on each side, or pop them in a toaster oven for added crispiness. You can prepare the fillings ahead of time for a quicker brunch experience.
