These were very good and very easy. I added about 1/2 teaspoon of dried thyme. I had a little of the filling left over and used it in an omelet - delicious. -
These are amazing. I made these to have on hand as a snack while we had some company over. I made them up the night before and par-cooked them then finished them up the next day. Everyone loved them (except some of the kids). I cheated and used Butter flavored cooking spray, following the directions on the Phyllo box to fold the sheets like a book and spray the pages one by one. This one is a keeper.
