Ingredients
- 2 lbs spinach (washed and chopped)
- 1 block tofu (pressed and crumbled)
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 1 onion (finely chopped)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Heat a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté onion and garlic until soft.
- Add spinach and cook until wilted. Remove from heat.
- In a bowl, combine crumbled tofu, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and dill. Add the cooked spinach mixture and mix well.
- Unroll phyllo dough and cover with a damp cloth to prevent drying out. Take one sheet, brush with olive oil, and place in the baking dish. Repeat with half the phyllo sheets.
