Recipe Instructions:
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 4-cup ring mold and line it with 8-10 whole spinach leaves, ensuring they cover the bottom and sides for a beautiful presentation.
-
Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add finely chopped onion and cook for about 3 minutes or until softened. Once done, remove from heat and set aside.
-
In a large bowl, combine the cooked onion, chopped spinach, 2% low-fat milk, crumbled feta cheese, bread crumbs, freshly chopped dill, grated lemon rind, pepper, and eggs. Mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined, ensuring a harmonious blend of flavors.
-
Pour the mixture into the prepared spinach-lined mold, spreading it evenly to fill the mold.
-
Place the mold in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the mixture is set and lightly golden on top. You can insert a toothpick in the center to check for doneness; it should come out clean when the dish is ready.
-
Once baked, carefully remove the ring mold from the oven and allow it to cool for a few minutes. Then, invert the mold onto a serving platter to release the feta ring, revealing its beautiful shape and vibrant colors.
-
Garnish the Green & White Feta Ring with lemon wedges for a refreshing citrusy touch and an added burst of flavor.
