Ingredients
1 1/2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil, half a turn of the pan
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 (10-ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, defrosted and squeezed dry
Salt and pepper
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, ground or freshly grated
4 ounces feta with black pepper or plain feta, crumbled into tiny bits
1 egg, beaten
3 tablespoons sour cream
4 (13 by 17-inch) sheets, defrosted phyllo pastry dough
3 tablespoons melted butter
Directions
Place oven rack in center of the oven and preheat to 400 degrees F.

Preheat a small pan over medium to medium high heat. Add oil and onion and saute 5 minutes. Place onion in a bowl. Add chopped dry, defrosted spinach and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Add feta to the bowl and combine it with spinach. Add beaten egg and sour cream to the bowl and combine with cheese, spinach and onion.

On a large work surface, place 1 sheet of phyllo. Paint half of the sheet with a little melted butter, paying extra attention to your perimeter. Fold sheet in half. Pile 1/4 of your spinach mixture into a log shape working 2 inches from bottom and each side. Tuck bottom up and fold both sides in, then roll and wrap upwards until you reach the edge of the dough sheet. Each pastry will resemble an egg roll. Paint the seam and the ends of the roll with butter and set roll seam side down on a cookie sheet. Repeat and make 4 rolls. Bake 15 minutes or until lightly golden all over and serve.
If you want to go the lazy way get canned crescent rolls and unroll them into triangle shape. Spoon filling into that. Top with second crescent rolled out and pinch edges together.

It's pretty yummy and both are easy recipes. I do them for brunches or if people are coming over to hang out. They're quick to make:)

Argh, maths overload, I'm somewhere in the region of half to two thirds of a week behind with my work and I have an assignment in next week. I'm taking Friday as a maths day in Lieu of a Sunday I worked but still lost pretty much a week when server was dying and all is a crap shoot, oh dear.

Washing up a little and then bed me thinks, to dream of inductive proofs (I know where I'm going from and to just not how to get there), proofs by contradiction and just do it (not sure what way to prove yet) and panic over not having even started this weeks work yet (I'll get there hopefully but could be pulling a major day/nighter on Friday.
