Total Time:

Ingredients:

1/2 lb. fillo
1/2 lb. butter, melted
1/2 lb. feta cheese, crumbled
1/2 lb. dry cottage cheese
3 eggs*

Directions:

Prepare filling by combining all filling ingrdients. Prepare fillo by using 2 whole buttered sheets; stack and cut into 6 strips. Use a heaping tsp. of filling on bottom of each pastry strip; use the triangle method for folding (like folding up a flag). Repeat using fillo and filling as instructed. Brush with melted butter and bake from 350° to 375°F for 15 minutes or until golden.

Comments from Kathleen Morrison :

*Version two ingredients (only slightly different):
1 lb. fillo
1-1/2 stick butter, melted
1 lb. feta
12 oz. cottage cheese
4 eggs
1/2 tsp. salt

Another variation is to add 1/3 cup chopped walnuts to the filling.

These triangles may be prepared and frozen prior to baking.
