½ cup Tnuva Feta Cow’s Milk Cheese
2 cups plain yogurt
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons baking soda

Phyllo dough

Preheat the oven to 400°F.
Mix the cheeses and yogurt together in a large bowl. Add the eggs and baking soda. The baking soda should begin bubbling immediately. Mix well.
Cut the phyllo dough into 6-inch strips. Spread a little melted butter onto one side of each strip. Place a small amount of cheese filling onto each dough strip. Add spinach if desired. Gently roll the strips closed and place onto baking paper.
