Ingredients

Scale

Phyllo Dough

  • 1 package phyllo dough

Olive Oil

  • 1/4 cup olive oil (for brushing)

Fresh Vegetables

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes, chopped
  • 1 cucumber, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, thinly sliced

Feta Cheese

  • 1 cup feta cheese, crumbled

Black Olives

  • 1/2 cup black olives, sliced

Fresh Herbs

  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley or dill, chopped

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Phyllo Cups: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Take a few sheets of phyllo dough and brush each layer with olive oil as you stack them. Cut the stacked phyllo into squares and gently press them into muffin tins to form cups. Bake until golden brown and crisp, about 10-12 minutes. Allow them to cool before filling.
  2. Make the Filling: While the phyllo cups are baking, chop your cherry tomatoes, cucumber, and red onion into small pieces. In a mixing bowl, combine these fresh veggies with crumbled feta cheese, sliced black olives, and chopped fresh herbs. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Toss everything together until well combined.
  3. Assemble the Cups: Once the phyllo cups have cooled, carefully spoon the Greek salad filling into each cup. Fill them generously, allowing the colorful mix to overflow slightly for a beautiful presentation. If desired, sprinkle a bit more feta on top for added flavor.

Notes

  • Keep unused phyllo dough covered with a damp cloth to prevent it from drying out.
  • Experiment with your favorite spices or dressings for a unique twist.
  • You can pre-bake phyllo cups a day ahead to save time.
  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best taste.
  • Fill the phyllo cups just before serving to maintain their crispiness.
