1/8 tsp Nutmeg

Preparation
Preheat oven to 375. Drain spinach in a strainer, using the back of a spoon to press out excess liquid.

Brush each sheet of filo with melted margarine or butter; stack filo sheets. Cut filo crosswise into 1/4's and lengthwise into 1/3's to form 12 (4-layer) squares. Gently press each square into a muffin cup. Spoon 1/4 cup spinach mixture into each filo-lined cup. Sprinkle with remaining 2 tbsp parmesan cheese. Bake 25 minutes or until golden brown and filling is set. Remove from oven; let stand 5 minutes. Remove from cups.
