Preparation

Baking Directions:

1.

For phyllo bags: 1. Place one sheet of phyllo on work surface.

Brush a little olive oil all over sheet, especially the edges of phyllo.

Place a second sheet on top in the opposite direction to make a cross.

Brush oil on top of second sheet as before.

Salt and pepper entire surface.

2.

Place vegetable prosciutto filling in middle of the phyllo.

Pull all the sides up toward the center to make a bag.

Pinch all four corners of phyllo dough together with your forefingers and thumbs.

Brush the outside of each bag with olive oil.

Continue the same procedure to make a total of 6 bags.

3.

Place the assembled bags on a baking tray brushed with olive oil.

Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until phyllo bags become a light golden brown.

4.

Place a few spoonfuls of Halloween sauce on the bottom of each serving dish, add a phyllo bag and serve (see recipe below).
