Feta Cheese Beggar's Pouches
- 16 sheets phyllo dough, cut into 32 squares
- 14 lb butter, melted (1 stick)
- 3 cups spinach, cooked and chopped
- 10 ounces feta cheese, crumbled
- 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
- 3 eggs
- 1 cup spicy marinara sauce
- 2 ounces asiago cheese
- Preheat oven to 375*.
- Brush each square of phyllo dough with melted butter and stack them in eight stacks of four.
- As you stack them, turn them slightly so the corners do not match up evenly.
- Cover the stacks with a slightly moistened towel or plastic wrap to keep phyllo from drying out.
- Combine the spinach, feta, garlic and eggs, and season with salt and pepper.
- Place a portion of the mixture on each of the stacks of phyllo.
- Pull the phyllo up over the mixture and pinch it together to make a pouch.
- Place the pouch on a baking sheet and brush with melted butter.
- Repeat to form 8 pouches, placing them approximately 1 inch apart on baking sheet.
- Bake the pouches for 20 to 25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- To serve, put some marinara in a large serving bowl and set the pouches on top.
- Grind fresh pepper over the top of each pouch and garnish with basil and asiago cheese.
- Serve hot.
