Athens Fillo Dough is the perfect addition to any Easter brunch menu, baking to a light and crispy finish, and it’s a healthy alternative to traditional frozen pastry, containing zero saturated fat, zero trans fat and zero cholesterol. Start the meal off with a fresh and savory taste of Lamb & Couscous in Phyllo Ramekins or a warm and cheesy serving of Chicken Cordon Bleu in Phyllo. Broccoli & Cheese Phyllo Turnovers are always a hit with the kids. Plus, our Egg & Ham Crispy Cups make preparation and serving easy in Athens Mini Fillo Shells.

 

Athens Mini Fillo Shells come fully baked and ready-to-fill with any and every ingredient imaginable, making them a great selection for quick appetizers and desserts that are easy to serve. Put a spin on traditional appetizers and try making these tasty Quick Mini Quiches, Ham & Herbed Cheese Phyllo Shells or Mushrooms with Smoked Mozzarella. If you’re in the mood for a bit of seafood, try whipping up a few 5 Spice Crab Phyllo Bites, featuring a delectable combination of ginger, basil, bell pepper, water chestnuts and crab.

 

Add a few fillo dishes to your hearty home-cooked meal with a few outstanding starters. Phyllo and Prosciutto Wrapped Asparagus are a compelling combination of fresh veggies, thinly sliced prosciutto and Parmesan cheese. Other delicious additions to your evening’s bill of fare are Sundried Tomato Caprese Phyllo Shells, Maryland Crab Shells and Blue Moon Appetizers.

 

Top off your Easter afternoon by adding a few bite-size sweets into your basket. Enjoy desserts featuring fresh fruit like Salted Caramel Apple Phyllo Tarts, Cranberry Lemon Mini Baklava Tarts or Phyllo Mascarpone with Fresh Raspberries & Kiwi Tarts. Pies are always a hit when planning for a spring dessert spread and they can be made with mini fillo shells recipes like these delicious Key Lime Tarts and Coconut Banana Mini Phyllo Cream Pies.
