Spinach, mushroom and feta has to be one of my favourite combinations. This pie is light with crispy phyllo pastry and a decadent spinach filling .

Lets Get Cooking - 25 Minutes
In a large pan heat 1 tablespoon of butter and add the garlic and mushrooms
Fry the mushrooms and garlic until cooked. Add the chopped spinach and the remainder of the butter (leaving teaspoon for later )

Lay 4 of the phyllo sheets with half of the sheets laying outside of one side of your tart pan. Lay the other 4 with the half of the sheets laying outside of the other side of the tart pan.
