Greek Feta and Spinach Potato Casserole - Great Easter Side Dish - Food Wishes

This might not be an authentic Greek recipe, but it’s certainly inspired by Greek cuisine, and I really loved how this came out. This simple feta, spinach, and potato casserole would make for a great Easter holiday side dish option. Enjoy!

I live for the “not authentic but delicious” genre of chef john recipes

I grew up eating Spinach & Potatoes, and at 70 I still make it. Canned spinach (undrained) mixed with lumpy mashed potatoes, butter, and salt. I have lots of feta, potatoes, and mint but no fresh spinach. So I’ll try it using my old standby, canned spinach. I’m sure it’ll be delicious. 😊

Chef John is a great philosopher. 'To get every single crumble in the perfect spot even though there's no such thing'. That sums up the human desire to advance even when it might seem futile.

"You are after all, the Charles Darwin of not hearing an ambulance siren". Love this one.

My grandmother used to cut potatoes in her hand!

I think the Feta brings it all together.

The printed recipe calls for turning the wilting spinach with tongues. This proved nearly impossible for both me and my wife (who singed her hair in the attempt). If you insist on trying anyway, select a very wide pan and induction cooktop for the job. The taste of the finished dish did make up for the burns though, so next time we'll try turning the spinach with tongs.

LOL 😆🤣😆 That's exactly how my mom cuts potatoes. In her hand with an extremely dull pairing knife. That's too funny!

Wow, I love anything with feta & spinach.

Everything in this recipe can be made kosher for Passover, too, and would be a gorgeous dish for a seder feast. Sounds and looks wonderful!

Like a Greek Pesto, spinach, feta, garlic, olive oil with potatoes, looks great!

Thank you for teaching me how to cook. Every weekend I travel to my parents home and cook one of your recipes. The corned beef was awesome. I was going to make your moms potato au gratin to go with our Easter ham, but I have to try this instead??¿?

It made me giggle at the end because, despite it only being a "prop" chop, not a future video, and not the subject of this video, you still cut into and tasted it first.
The casserole might be good, but meat is still better. :D

I usually get a couple of giggles out of watching your other videos, but this time I was laughing all the way through! BTW - That looks delectable!

That whole line about Charles Darwin had me in stitches.

Not a Greek recipe but with ingredients we use a lot in Greece. It's definitely in our taste
