I combined two recipes to come up with this dish that's terrific for either brunch or dinner. Reduced-fat cheese, egg whites and a shredded-potato crust help lighten it up. &$151;Lola Kauffmann of Goshen, Indiana

    This delicious spinach pie is a Greek mainstay. Creamy feta cheese, and fresh spinach are layered between flaky dough. It makes a great vegetarian main dish recipe.
