Spinach, Mushroom & Feta Bites

Spinach, Mushroom & Feta Bites

1 Egg

1/2 C. Cooked/Frozen Spinach

1 C. (before cooking) diced Portabella Mushrooms

1 small onion, diced

2 oz Feta cheese, crumbled

2 sheets Frozen Phyllo Dough – thawed

Salt & Pepper

Melted Butter or Spray Oil

 

Sauté the mushrooms and onions together until onions are translucent and the mushrooms have wilted, let cool. Chop the spinach. In a bowl combine the egg, spinach, mushrooms/onions and salt & pepper (to taste), mix well. Gently fold feta cheese into the mixture. Set aside. Prepare a mini muffin tin by lightly buttering or spraying each C.. Separate the two sheets of phyllo dough and brush butter or spray oil each sheet. Cut the dough into 20 squares (ten from each sheet). Lay one square down, then place another square on top, rotating the square (the bottom should look like a square, the top like a diamond). Place the layered dough over one of the muffin C. and push the center into it forming a C.. Evenly divide the filling mixture into the dough C.. You now have a choice, you can leave the points of the dough squares just formed loosely around the edge of the bite or you can fold them over the top of the bite (in the picture above the bite on the left the dough was folded over the top, the bite on the right was left open.) Bake in a 400 degree oven until the egg is set and the dough is slightly browned (approx 15-20 minutes). Allow to cool slightly before turning out of the muffin tin.
