Homemade Filo Stuffed with Cheese (Toula M)


Homemade Filo Stuffed with Cheese

These homemade filo triangles filled with cheese are so scrumptious that I don't know if I'll ever be able to enjoy store boughten filo again.

I'm not saying I'll never use store boughten filo.  - This is a staple in my freezer.  The homemade version was just such a special treat.  So flakey with a flavour that is out of this world.  I only wish my aunt owned a bakery - This is a must try for everyone!

Thanks for the lovely experience Aunt Toula!  Your Tiropitakia were delicious!

Spinach Croissants (Toula M)


Spinach Croissants

Aunt Toula makes the absolute most amazing croissants that I have ever tasted.  There isn't one person out there that has tried them and didn't LOVE them as much as our entire family does.  We always get so excited when she comes to visit because there's always a special bowl full of this delicacy.

It took me a long time to get this recipe from my aunt.  I've attempted making them on my own, but something is always a little off.  While in Florida, Aunt Toula allowed me to watch and photograph her in action, step by step.

The entire building smelled so nice from the outside.  All our neighbours enjoyed a sample, including the UPS delivery man that my aunt befriended over the winter.
