What You Need

egg, beaten

pkg. (10 oz.) frozen chopped spinach, thawed, well drained

cup ATHENOS Traditional Crumbled Feta Cheese

tub (8 oz.) PHILADELPHIA Garden Vegetable 1/3 Less Fat than Cream Cheese

green onions, finely chopped

sheets frozen phyllo dough (14x9 inch), thawed

1/3

cup butter, melted

Make It

MIX first 5 ingredients until well blended. Brush 1 phyllo sheet lightly with butter; top with 2 more phyllo sheets, lightly brushing each layer with some of the remaining butter. Place remaining phyllo between sheets of plastic wrap; set aside.

SPREAD 1/5 of the spinach mixture along one short side of phyllo stack. Fold in long sides of phyllo; roll up from one short side to make log. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets and spinach mixture. Brush with remaining butter. Make small cuts in tops of logs at 1-inch intervals. Place in large freezer-weight resealable plastic bags or wrap tightly in plastic wrap.

FREEZE up to 3 months. When ready to bake, remove desired number of logs from freezer. Refrigerate, tightly wrapped, several hours or overnight until thawed. Unwrap, then place on baking sheet. Bake in 375°F oven for 25 min. or until golden brown. Cool 5 min. Transfer to cutting board. Use serrated knife to cut each log into 6 slices.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Storage Know-How

Leftover phyllo sheets can be wrapped tightly and refrozen.

How to Prepare with 18x14-inch Phyllo Sheets

Use a total of 9 phyllo sheets, spreading 1/3 of the filling on each stack of 3 sheets and rolling up each stack to make a total of 3 logs. Freeze and bake as directed. Cut each log into 10 slices to serve.

Variation

Omit butter. Spray phyllo sheets with cooking spay instead of brushing with the melted butter.

Made this for our family Thanksgiving party. Was a big hit. Will definitely make again for future entertaining. It's great that it's one of those recipes that can be made ahead of your party plans and just be popped in the oven to be finished.

I love the roll-ups they are absolutely wonderful! I usually make the Greek dish Spanakopita but the recipe i have for that could feed about 10 people. i needed a recipe that was a bit smaller. And i found this and tried it and Love it. It is just as good and perfect to make for me and my son!

I have made this recipe several times and it is always well received. You know it is good when friends ask for the recipe! The spinach and cream cheese are a good taste blend.

I didn't have time for the phyllo dough, so I used the phyllo cups. They were delicious and so easy. I am making them again this year.

I always make a double recipe of this, watching the video for the phyllo instructions. I freeze it for later, spur of the moment occasions. It is delicious. I always get compliments.
