Melt butter.

Prepare filling of your choice, mixing all ingredients well. Season to taste.

Unfold phyllo. Keep covered with waxed paper topped with lightly dampened towel while working. Lightly brush melted butter over 1 sheet. Top with another. Brush again. Cut widthwise into 2 inch strips.

Place about 1/2 tbsp filling in bottom corner of each strip. Fold corner over to opposite side, covering filling, to form a triangle. Then fold, flag fashion, lengthwise of strip, following natural pattern of triangle. Trim or tuck in last fold of excess dough.

Place seamside down on lightly buttered baking sheet. Brush with butter. Repeat with remaining ingredients.
