    Title: Mediterranean Stuffed Phyllo Crisps
    Categories: Pastry, Cheese, Greens, Vegetables
    Yield: 24 servings

    12 tb Butter; melted
    12 oz Cream cheese; softened
    10 oz Box chopped spinach; thawed,
    - drained well
    1/2 ts Garlic powder
    1/2 ts Onion powder
    1/4 ts Salt
    1/4 ts Black pepper
    1/4 c Sun-dried tomatoes in oil;
    - drained, chopped
    8 oz (1/2 pkg) phyllo dough;
    - thawed

    Set the oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.

    Brush a thin layer of butter over the bottom of a 9" x
    13" baking dish.

    In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, spinach, garlic
    powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper; mix well. Stir
    in sun-dried tomatoes; set aside.

    Carefully unroll the phyllo dough sheets onto a flat
    work surface. Remove one sheet of phyllo dough and place
    it on the bottom of the baking dish, trimming edges if
    necessary to fit baking dish. Brush the top of the
    phyllo lightly with butter. Repeat with 6 more sheets of
    phyllo, brushing each with butter.

    Gently spread half the spinach mixture over the phyllo
    dough. Place a sheet of phyllo on top of the mixture and
    lightly brush with butter. Repeat 4 more times, brushing
    each phyllo sheet with butter. Gently spread the
    remaining spinach mixture on the phyllo, then repeat
    layering with 7 more sheets of phyllo, brushing each of
    them with butter.

    Before baking, use a sharp knife to cut the raw pastry
    on the diagonal in a diamond pattern as shown, and leave
    in pan. Bake 40 to 45 minutes, or until the pastry is
    golden brown and crisp.

    Serve warm.

    Test Kitchen Tip: Once you open the box of phyllo dough,
    you see how thin the sheets are. The crispy layers are
    created by alternating the sheets with butter. It is
    really simple and very impressive.
