Ingredients

The following ingredients have 4 Servings
  • 15 phyllo shells ((one package))
  • 1/2 cup finely diced tomato (, I used Roma tomatoes)
  • 1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
  • 3 TBSP sliced green onion / scallions
  • 1.5 TBSP extra virgin olive oil
  • a squeeze of lemon juice (, to taste)
  • 1/8 tsp dried basil
  • 1/8 tsp garlic powder
  • pinch of salt and pepper

Instruction

  • For a bit of extra crispness, preheat oven to 350°F and lightly toast phyllo shells for 5-6 minutes or until edges are golden. This step is optional but adds extra crunch!
  • Finely dice your tomato. I like to use Roma or plum tomatoes for these but other varieties will work as long as they're ripe. If using a block of feta, crumble and measure out 1/3 cup. Slice green onions with a chef's knife or with kitchen scissors.
  • Combine tomatoes, feta, and green onion with olive oil and a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. Season with dried basil, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well and adjust ingreidents to taste.
  • Spoon into lightly toasted phyllo shells and enjoy! I use a 1/2 TBSP measuring spoon to add a heaping spoonful to each phyllo cup.
