Add in ricotta cheese and feta, then add to the spinach mixture; mix to combine with a wooden spoon. | 7. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper (at this point I add in about 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese, but that is optional). | 8. Layer 4 sheets of thawed phyllo dough into prepared pie plate, brushing each layer with melted butter or oil (to prevent drying out, follow the instructions on the phyllo dough package). | 9.
