Italian Spinach Pie


I was looking for budget friendly healthy recipes and came across this one. To be honest I wasn't sure about the whole cottage thing...but it came out great. It even tasted better the second day after it had time to set and flavors were able to come out. The original recipe seemed a little bland so I added some spices and I think that helps this dish a lot.
