Simple Spanakopita Triangles

These EASY Greek-style nibbles taste great served warm or a room temp., and would be wonderful with a side of Tzatziki sauce.
(makes 32 triangles)

6 T. EVOO, divided
1 large sweet* onion, finely chopped (2 cups)
2 10 oz. pkg. frozen spinach, squeezed dry and chopped
8 oz. crumbled feta cheese
16 frozen phyllo sheets, thawed
Cooking spray

Heat 1 T. oil in a large skillet over med.-high heat. Add onion, and sauté 5-7 mins., or until beginning to brown. Add spinach, and cook 3 mins. more or until mostly dry. Transfer to a bowl to cool. Stir feta into cooled spinach mixture. Preheat oven to 350. Coat two baking sheets with cooking spray. Place 1 phyllo sheet on work surface with short side nearest you. Brush phyllo sheet with oil. Set second sheet on top, and brush with oil. Cut the stack into 4 long strips. Spoon 1&1/2 T. spinach mixture on short end of each strip. Fold end of strip over filling to make a triangle. Fold pointed end up to seal triangle. Continue folding pointed ends up and over phyllo strip until you have  filled triangles. Transfer to prepared baking sheet. Repeat with remaining phyllo, oil, and filling. Bake 15-20 mins. or until golden brown. Cool 10 mins. before serving.
