Filo Rolls with Veggie Filling

Date
Feb, 14, 2015

Today I worked on cleaning my fridge and freezer, and found I had whole wheat filo (phyllo) dough in the freezer. Since it had been there for a while, I decided it was time to use it. The filling was very simple: mushrooms, arugula, zucchini and onion. The kids and James really liked it, so it was a hit. I love when it’s that easy!

  • Filo dough, defrostedFilo rolls
  • 3 Tbsp. canola oil
  • 1 medium zucchini, diced
  • 1 small yellow onion, peeled and diced
  • 2 cups mushrooms (I used oyster and chanterelles) chopped
  • 1 cup arugula
  • Salt & pepper to taste
  • Sweet & spicy chili sauce for dip

Preheat oven to F400

Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in a frying pan on medium heat and fry onions for 30 seconds. Add zucchini and mushrooms, and fry for 2 minutes. Add arugula, salt and pepper. Brush each sheet of filo with oil, and add a few spoonfuls of filling on each. Fold edges in and carefully roll or fold into a package. Brush the outside with oil. Repeat until all filling is gone. This makes about 4 packages, depending on how much filling you want in each. Place on parchment paper on a cookie sheet. Bake for 10 minutes or until golden brown. Eat with a mixed salad and dipping sauce.
