Layer 5 more sheets of phyllo on top, brushing each sheet with butter. Spread vegetable mixture over phyllo to within 2 inches of edge. Place remaining sheet of phyllo over mixture. fold edges over twice to seal. Fold in half lengthwise; brush with butter.

CHEDDAR BROCCOLI STRUDEL

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 F, and oil a baking sheet.
• Melt butter or olive oil in a large pan. add onion and saute for about 5 minutes over medium heat.
• Add broccoli, salt and pepper, and cook for about 5 more minutes.
• Add garlic, and saute until broccoli is tender, about 5 more minutes, then remove from heat.
• Stir in bread crumbs, cheddar cheese, and lemon juice.
• To assemble: Place one sheet of phyllo on a clean, dry countertop. Brush the top lightly with olive oil, then add a second sheet. continue this process until there is a pile of five sheets. Add half the filling in the shape of a log to the short end of the phyllo pastry. fold in the sides (about 1/2 inch), then gently roll up so you have a neat little log (this process is easier than it sounds, think of it as a pastry burrito).
• Repeat the procedure to make a second roll.
• Carefully lift the pastries onto the baking sheet 4 inches apart.
• Bake for 25-30 minutes, until golden brown.
• Cut slices with a serated edge knife in a gentle sawing motion.
