--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  2       pk           Of strudel leaves
  2       lb           Fresh spinach
  3       tb           Olive oil
  1 1/2   c            Finely chopped onion
  4       tb           Butter/margerine
  5                    Eggs--beaten
    1/2   c            Chopped scallions, green
                       -part included
    1/2   lb           Greek feta cheese--chopped
    1/2   c            Chopped dill
    1/2   c            Finely chopped parsley
                       Salt and freshly ground
                       -pepper to taste
    1/2   lb           Sweet butter--melted

 Remove packages of strudel leaves from the refrigerator
 at least 3 hours before using.  Wash the spinach in
 several changes of water.  Dry it and cut into 2-inch
 lengths. Cook it in oil till wilted. Drain. Brown the
 onions in butter. Mix the onions, eggs, scallions,
 cheese, dill and parsley.  Add the spinach and season
 with salt and pepper. Preheat oven to 350 F.  Butter
 two 8 X 8 X 2-inch pans. Cut 2 strudel leaves into 6
 squares each by cutting into thirds lengthwise and in
 half across (keep the remaining strudel leaves covered
 to prevent drying). Place 1 of the squares in the
 prepared pan and brush with melted butter. Repeat with
 the remaining 11 strudel sqaures, placing each on top
 of the last. Spread with half of the spinach-cheese
 filling and cover with 12 more strudel sqaures,
 brushing each with butter. Repeat the process with the
 remaining ingredients for a second pan. With a sharp
 knife, cut through the top to mark it into 2-inch
 squares.  Bake 1 hour or till brown and very puffy.
 Cut into squares and serve hot.
