Druming up support

 Garden Warriors Hit the Streets with their Silver beet feta filo's

This week we hit the streets to drum up support for our school garden, sell a few raffle tickets, and see if we could reel in the local votes. Who could turn down a platter of fresh silver beet feta filo's on a rainy day!

Our Garden Warrior Filo's were so fabulous... that request after request came in for this quick & easy recipe, so here it is below:

Mini Silver beet, feta filo's:

8 sheets of filo pastry
4 eggs
1 packet feta
Steamed silver beet (about 2 loose cups steamed)
Pepper to season
Olive oil for brushing pastry and mini muffin  pans

Makes: 48
Total preparation & cooking time: <40 minutes
Cost: $7.50 ($2 1/2 packet of filo pastry, $1.50 eggs, $4 feta, silver beet from garden free)

 Rinse and finely slice your fresh sliver beet from your garden, lightly steam (or pour boiling water over in a bowl, allow to rest, then drain)

 Whisk eggs with feta in a large bowl, season with pepper (what sort of chook laid this egg?)

 Lightly brush & layer 4 sheets of filo with the olive oil, then cut into 24 small squares. Repeat with the other 4 sheets of filo.

 Press the filo squares into the lightly oiled mini muffin trays.

 Place steamed silver beet into the pastry cases, spoon over egg and feta mixture.

Place in a hot 200 C oven and bake for 10-15 minutes, serve warm!

 

Perfect for brunch while watching the America's Cup, picnics or posh dinner parties, & are yummy in lunch boxes too!
