Spanakopita
Folds ahead and freezes raw; bake straight from frozen, adding extra oven time.
This is the base recipe: one batch, 12 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because there is no committed plan for this dish. Build and commit a plan that includes it and this card multiplies itself to the batch count the plan computes.

Multiplying the ingredients is the easy half. These are the parts of the recipe that the batch count does not move.
- Cooking time
- 30 minutes in the oven, whatever fraction of the tray is filled. A half-full tray browns faster, so look at it sooner rather than trusting the clock.
- Read the whole method before you shop. This is a planning recipe for spanakopita, not a certified kitchen test.
- Amounts below are one batch: 12 portions. Build a plan and this card scales itself to it.
- This dish can be completed up to 2 days ahead. Cold storage is the real limit — do not make it ahead if the fridge is already tight.
- Oven occupancy is 30 minutes per tray. Do not start this tray if the day-of oven window is already full.
- Season, tray up, roast, rest. Hold only as long as the fixture hold time.
- Holds about 60 minutes once finished. After that, quality drops — do not invent extra time.
- Confirm every ingredient and every allergen yourself. Dietary tags are planning filters, not safety guarantees.
Can be completed up to 2 days ahead. Fridge units: 1 per batch, so 1 batch takes about 1 shelf-thirds while it waits.
Base recipe: one batch, 12 portions. Nothing has been scaled, because no plan was open. Cooking time does not move with the batch: 30 minutes in the oven either way.
Not every line here was multiplied by the same number. Why doubling a recipe is not multiplication
