Phyllo (so) bites?



Recommended Posts

Would you consider phyllo fattening or do you think it would be okay to eat with some feta? In half Greek and I miss my "feta cheese" pies. Lmao.

Thanks, now I am in the mood for some spanakopita. :)

I'll look for a lower calorie recipe version on the internet.

I don't eat any kind of bread because it takes up too much space in my sleeve. If it is on your plan you have to decide if it is worth it.

No problem. That way it's bite size for us and we won't over indulge.

Filo has much fewer calories and much less volume than pastry or bread. You don't need much to make a dish, and can leave out or minimise the butter or olive oil between layers.

I would eat it, as it gives yummy crunch and holds together a spinach and cheese pie, which is pretty nutritious especially as it also usually has egg and would freeze well so you can cook in bulk. Also, I love the muffin pan idea.
