Flakey Spinach Pockets



For a Christmas appetizer, we made these savory pastries with phyllo dough, spinach, and crumbled tofu.

First, steam the spinach and chop it, then mix it with crumbled firm tofu (I just used a fork in a large bowl). Add salt, pepper, spices, garlic, etc. to taste.



Melt some Earth Balance vegan margarine and lay out the phyllo dough layer by layer. Brush the butter between each layer of phyllo dough (about 5-6 sheets per batch). Then we used kitchen scissors to cut the dough into little squares and put a spoonful of the spinach mixture on the filo square. Then pinch the filo into a little pocket and brushed more butter over the top. Just bake on 375 for a few minutes, until they turn a nice brown color.
