3 ounces Sun-dried tomatoes; packed in oil
12 larges Fresh basil leaves -or-

Preheat broiler. Take out a cookie sheet and set aside. Cut filo dough sheets in half widthwise and set aside under damp cloth or paper towel so that edges won't dry out. To assemble appetizers, separate one sheet of dough, place on bread board, and brush with some of the melted butter. Fold sheet into thirds lengthwise and place 1 tablespoon cheese in center of rectangle. Layer cheese with a sun-dried tomato and

a fresh basil leaf (or 2 small leaves) and fold corner up repeatedly to form a triangle, beginning at end with filling in it. Brush with additional butter and place on cookie sheet. Repeat with remaining sheets of filo dough, then broil appetizers on cookie sheet until golden brown, about 5 to 7 minutes. Serve warm. Makes 1 dozen appetizers

These easy-to-prepare, healthy appetizers are real showstoppers, and are sure to be

the most popular finger food at your next party. Sheep's milk is the most easily

digested of all milks and is considered to make the finest cheese and smoothest yogurt. One ounce contains 45 calories, 3 grams of fat, and 65 milligrams of sodium.
