Jeanne's Birthday

Colleen and I promised to get together and celebrate food and making it together this year - more than ever - maybe once a month, maybe every other month. No matter, it was a great birthday for me to spend it making Greek food with Colleen. We made 2 different Spanikopitas - my traditional one and another I saw Ina Garten make that looked interesting (with pine nuts, parm cheese & nutmeg - not the traditional ingredients I'm used to) - and an Artichoke Phyllo Triangle with Shrimp.

Above Colleen is buttering the layers of phyllo dough before she adds some filling.
Above are some of our "larger" triangles.
Now rolling up the smaller artichoke-shrimp phyllo triangles.
A time consuming process - but well worth the effort when you taste theses triangles!!!

Here are some finished triangles, most of the smaller appetizer portion, but 2 of the larger dinner size, meant to be served with fish or meat. We can't wait to try these!!!
