Cheese Triangles

A great tasty appetizer and so easy!

• Ready In: 35 mins
• Serves: 18

Ingredients

• 1  cup feta or 1  cup blue cheese, crumbled
• 1⁄3 cup ricotta cheese or 1⁄3 cup 2% fat cottage cheese
• 1  egg, beaten
• 1  green onion, finely chopped
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper, fresh ground
• 1 (397 g) package puff pastry, frozen, thawed
• 1  egg, beaten, for glazing pastry

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 425°F degrees.
2. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
3. In a medium bowl, combine cheeses, egg, green onion and pepper; set aside.
4. On a lightly floured surface, roll out half the puff pastry to a 10 inch square. With a sharp knife, cut pastry into 9 even squares, repeat with other half of puff pastry.
5. Working with one square at a time, place a spoonful of the cheese mixture in the middle of each pastry square; brush edges very lightly with water, then fold one corner over to meet the opposite corner, forming a triangle.
6. Press edges together to seal, then crimp firmly shut with the tines of a fork.
7. Place triangles on baking sheet; brush the tops with the second beaten egg.
8. Bake for 13 to 15 minutes or until the tops are golden and the bottoms are nicely browned.
