Ingredients

    1 cup green lentils, cooked

    2 tbsp parmesan cheese, grated

    1 tbsp onion, finely chopped

    ¼ tsp oregano, dry crumbled

    ¼ tsp thyme, dry crumbled

    1/8 tsp black pepper, ground

    1 garlic clove, minced

    1 lb pkg. phyllo pastry

    2 tbsp canola oil

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 160° C (325° F).
  2. In a food processor or blender, purée lentils*. Add cheese, onion, oregano, thyme, pepper and garlic. Mix well.
  3. Cut individual phyllo pastry sheets into 15 x 20 cm (6” x 8”) pieces. Lightly brush with canola oil.
  4. Spread 1 tsp filling along one end of pastry sheet and roll over once. Turn in edges of pastry and roll up to make a cigar shape. Repeat this procedure until all of the filling has been used.
  5. Place filled pastry rolls on a nonstick baking sheet. Bake rolls 15-20 minutes, or until golden brown.

*Lentil Purée - Place cooked or rinsed & drained canned lentils into a food processor. For every 1 cup lentils, add ¼ cup water. Blend to make a smooth purée with a consistency like canned pumpkin. If needed, add additional water 1 tbsp at a time.
