This is the second time we've made this surprisingly easy spanakopita recipe. The first time, it occurred to me that it would work with frozen spinach too, and it does! But you have to wait for the spinach to thaw before making the filling, so it's actually not that convenient. And it's not like you could make it without planning anyway, because you won't have a pound of spinach, a pound of feta and a pound of ricotta lying around.

The only thing is that we had to make our own ricotta the day before both times, because it seems to be the one cheese you can't find lactose-free in Finland. We are planning to try it with cottage cheese next time, to avoid that.
