Delightfully delicious! We made changes.. We swapped E.V. Olive Oil, instead of veggie oil; we added Brie cheese & Basil. It is delicious! Enjoy!! Greta

Can I use puff pastry instead of phyllo dough? I accidentally grabbed the wrong stuff at the store and don’t want to waste it. If not I’ll just have to make another trip to the store and find a different recipe to try for the puff pastry.

I essentially followed the recipe and it came out great. Recommend using about 12 oz. of feta and brushing filo with an egg wash for sheen and more flakiness. It was also extremely helpful to only bake one for starters to ensure the taste and texture were perfect.

How much in advance can I make the filled triangles before baking them in the oven? I am hoping to be able to do all the prep way ahead of time before my guests arrive.
