Veggie Quiche Bundles Recipe

Veggie Quiche Bundles

1 cup chopped fresh mushrooms

½ cup diced zucchini

¼ cup chopped red onion

1 Tbsp. plus 1/3 cup butter, divided

1 plum tomato, seeded and diced

3 eggs

½ cup milk

1 Tbsp. prepared pesto

¼ tsp. coarsely ground pepper

½ cup crumbled feta cheese

½ cup shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese

12 sheets phyllo dough (14×9 inches)

In a skillet, sauté the mushrooms, zucchini and onion in 1 tablespoon butter until mushrooms are tender; stir in tomato.  In a small bowl, whisk the eggs, milk, pesto and pepper.  In another bowl, combine feta and mozzarella cheeses.

Melt remaining butter.  Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a work surface; brush with butter.  Repeat with three more sheets of phyllo, brushing each layer.  Cut phyllo in half widthwise, then cut in half lengthwise.  (Keep remaining phyllo covered with plastic wrap and a damp towel to prevent it from drying out).

Repeat with remaining phyllo dough and butter.  Carefully place each stack in a greased muffin cup.  Fill each with 4 teaspoons vegetable mixture, 1 tablespoon cheese mixture and 4 teaspoons egg mixture.  Pinch corners of phyllo together and twist to seal.

Bake at 325 F. for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.  Serve warm.  Refrigerate leftovers.     1 dozen
