Recipe View 30 mins Assemble the Triangles: On a clean, flat surface, gently unroll the phyllo dough. Keep the stack of phyllo covered with a slightly damp towel to prevent it from drying out and cracking. Place one sheet of phyllo on the work surface and brush it lightly with melted butter. Cut the sheet lengthwise into strips approximately 5 inches wide. Place about 1 tablespoon of the spinach and cheese mixture at one end of each dough strip. Fold one corner of the strip over the filling to form a triangle. Continue folding the strip, maintaining the triangular shape, until you reach the end of the strip. Brush the top of each triangle with melted butter.

For best results, ensure the spinach is thoroughly drained to prevent soggy triangles.
Melt the butter slowly to avoid burning.

For a richer flavor, use a combination of cheeses such as ricotta and Parmesan.

    The phyllo was a bit tricky to work with at first, but the end result was totally worth it! I'll definitely be making these again.

    I added a pinch of nutmeg to the filling and it gave it a lovely warm flavor.

    Freezing them before baking is a great tip! I had some unexpected guests and was able to bake them up quickly.
