Greek Spinach Salad in Mini Phyllo Cups
We found these pre-made phyllo cups at the store a few weeks ago, and kept forgetting to use them. They were flavored, in spinach and sundried tomato, perfect for this recipe. Quite tasty, and cute to boot! We only used half the cups… any ideas for what could fill them next?

Those little phyllo cups are adorable! Can you please share the brand name that they’re sold under? Or the store where you purchased them? I’d love to have them on hand for my next party.

Jan 12, 2008 | ReplyFunny thing is I haven’t seen them since! They were in one of those special end-caps one week so we bought them. Maybe if I actually look I could find them again… :)
