Turn the fresh flavors of a Greek salad into a warm dish for cold winter nights. I like to make a large batch, freeze it, then simply drop ravioli into simmering water for dinner in five minutes! —Carla Mendres, Winnipeg, Manitoba

Ingredients

10 ounces (about 12 cups) fresh baby spinach
1/2 cup finely chopped roasted sweet red peppers
1/2 cup pitted and finely chopped ripe olives
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
3 tablespoons snipped fresh dill
2 to 3 teaspoons dried oregano
2 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 cups whole milk
96 pot sticker or gyoza wrappers
Additional snipped fresh dill, optional
Sauce of your choice

Directions

1. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook and stir spinach in batches until wilted, 3-4 minutes. Drain on paper towels. In a bowl, combine spinach with next 5 ingredients.
2. In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour until smooth; gradually whisk in milk. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until sauce thickens and coats a spoon, 2-3 minutes. Stir into spinach mixture.
3. Place 1 tablespoon spinach mixture in center of a pot sticker wrapper. (Cover remaining wrappers with a damp paper towel until ready to use.) Moisten wrapper edge with water, and place another wrapper on top. Press edges to seal. Repeat with remaining wrappers.
4. Fill a Dutch oven two-thirds full with water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; drop ravioli in batches into simmering water until cooked through, 3-4 minutes. If desired, sprinkle with additional dill. Serve with sauce of your choice.
