1 pkg cream cheese, softened

1 pkg (10oz) frozen chopped spinach thawed and well drained

1/3 cup chopped drained roasted red peppers

1/4 tsp garlic salt

6 sheets of frozen phyllo, thawed

1/2 cup (1 stick) butter or margarine, melted



Directions:



1. Mix cream cheese, spinach, red peppers, and garlic salt with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended.



2. lay 1 phyllo sheet on flat surface. Brush with some of the melted butter. Cut lengthwise into 4 strips.



3. Spoon about 1 tbsp of filling about 1 inch from the end of each strip. Fold the end over the filling at a 45 degree angle. Continue folding as you would fold a flag to form a triangle that encloses the filling. Repeat procedure with remaining phyllo sheets. Place triangles on a cookie sheet. Brush with melted butter.



4. Bake at 375 degrees for 12-15 mins or until golden brown.
