I love this recipe. I decided to vary it a little bit by omitting the cheese. Then I used one sheet of phyllo to make egg roll sized strudels and baked for around 30 minutes until light brown. I served them with some Carrot Ginger soup and it made a nice, light supper. I'll bet they would be great as a little appetizer and can be made ahead of time, kept in the refrigerator just before baking. Thanks LDJ for posting such an interesting and delicious recipe.
