Phyllo Tart Shells

I usually make my own phyllo tart shells, and although it's not difficult, it is a little time consuming.  So when I came across these ready-made ones, I was ecstatic.  I've only been able to find them in the U.S., so if anyone has seen them in Canada, please let me know where.



These ready-made shells make easy and delicious appetizers.  For cold appetizers, fill with any of the following:
  • mango salsa
  • crab or shrimp salad
  • bruschetta topping with a little balsamic glaze
  • tomatoe and boccacini with a little basil and balsamic glaze on top

For hot appetizers, simply fill with any of the following and bake around 325 to 350 until heated through:
  • goat cheese topped with sundried tomatoe or fig compote
  • goat cheese topped with caramelized onions
  • brie cheese topped with mango chutney, raspberry or blueberry jam

Although, I've not used them for desserts, I could see filling with them with a cheesecake filling, chocolate mousse, or creme caramel.
