cottage cheese
🥗Healthier: ricotta cheese
💰Cheaper: cream cheese
Ricotta offers similar texture with lower fat.
butter
🥗Healthier: olive oil
💰Cheaper: margarine

spinach

Mix flour, yeast, salt, and sugar in a large bowl.
Add warm water and melted butter to the dry ingredients.
Knead the dough until smooth and elastic, about 10 minutes.
Cover the dough with a cloth and let it rise in a warm place until doubled in size, about 1 hour.
Sauté chopped onions in a pan until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add spinach to the onions and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes.
Remove from heat and let the mixture cool slightly.
In a bowl, combine cottage cheese, eggs, and black pepper.
Stir in the cooled spinach and onion mixture, along with chopped parsley.
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
Roll out the dough on a floured surface to fit a baking dish.
Place half the dough in the dish, add the filling, then cover with the remaining dough.
Bake until golden brown, about 30-35 minutes.
