Share the Love This Valentine's Day with Romantic Recipes from Athens Foods

CLEVELAND – February 2, 2015 – Grab the chocolates, candy hearts, giant stuffed teddy bear, a dozen roses - and don’t forget the fillo dough - to make your Valentine’s Day complete. Athens Fillo Dough and Mini Fillo Shells make planning your sweetheart’s menu easy, and you are sure to impress crowds big and small at this year’s Valentine’s Day party.

Start the night off with a selection of tasty, bite-sized hors d’oeuvres like Shrimp and Pesto Mini Phyllo Shells, Chicken Florentine Phyllo Petites or Brie with Fresh Raspberry – all in Mini Fillo Shells that come fully baked and ready-to-fill with your favorite ingredients.

Entrée possibilities are endless with Athens Fill Dough and it serves as a healthy substitute for other frozen pastry, containing zero saturated fat, trans fat and cholesterol. Impress your Valentine with savory Oysters Origami for Two, Salmon Phyllo Rolls or Shrimp with Prosciutto in Phyllo. Phyllo triangles are simple to make, but look intricate when filled with a combination of fine ingredients like those found in our Ratatouille & Cheese Phyllo Triangles.

No Valentine’s date is complete without fresh strawberries in a sweet dessert like Fresh Strawberry Phyllo Napoleons, Strawberry Shortcake Baklava, Chocolate Cream with Strawberries, or Strawberry Tiramisu Tarts. Preparation time can also be cut in half for recipes that call for shells made out of fillo sheets by using Mini Fillo Shells.

Mini Fillo Shells serve as a delightful addition to bite-sized sweets that are easy to make for a group of Valentines. Festive Cannoli Phyllo Tarts, Ginger Pistachio Cherry Delights, Molten Chocolate & Fresh Raspberry Mini Phyllo Tarts, Peanut Butter & Chocolate Kiss and Cookies and Cream Mini Phyllo Shells are sure to satisfy every Valentine's sweet tooth.
