Spanakopita Strifti: Greek Four Cheese by

Spanakopita Strifti literally means twisted spinach & cheese pie. A creamy cheese filling is rolled in phyllo dough then formed into a spiral. It’s the type of pie that brings Greeks warm and fuzzy feelings because it reminds them of their Yia-Yia (Greek grandmother). My Greek friend’s Yia-Yia would make Spanakopita Strifti every Thanksgiving and Christmas.

My version has four types of cheeses: cream cheese. ricotta, mozzarella and parmesan. Why no feta, you ask? Because I’m not on team feta. This may be sacrilegious to many Greeks but I just don’t like the salty sour cheese. (I sincerely apologize my Greek friends.).

The creamy filling was seasoned with dill, a little nutmeg, scallions, and spinach. It was then brushed with butter and baked to golden brown perfection. Garnished with sesame and nigella seeds.

You have to bite through several delicate and crispy layers of phyllo to reach the creamy center. What a heavenly journey that is!

Corp/securities associate and lateraled to a 40-50 attorney firm earlier this year. I’m a non traditional candidate and considered a 3rd or 4th year and make $200k base. Waiting on raise/bonus info but can’t help but wonder if I could be making $100k more at a larger firm and working similar hours. I put a premium on the people I work with and have gotten a good rhythm here as well as built up a good rep so far. For reference I have billed avg. 180-200 hrs a month. Any insights?

I've been working here for about two years now, and I have to say, I love my job. The company culture is great and the people are wonderful to work with. But recently, I've noticed that my manager has been asking me to do more and more work on my own without giving me any additional compensation for my time. He just keeps telling me that if I want to get ahead, then this is what I need to do.

I'm not sure what to do here—do you have any advice?

Would really love to help my lovely sister in law find a job in NYC or CT. She is a certified nutritionist, celebrity personal chef (her current job in Aspen but she is moving to Westport in January) and an all-around terrific, dedicated, hardworking person. She gets down around the holidays because she's single and doesn't have kids, but is an amazing aunt to our kids. Does anyone have any leads in the health/ wellness space? Im in biglaw and this is out of my depth a bit. TIA, Happy Holidays!
