Rice & Artichoke Phyllo Triangles


Ingredients
1 box UNCLE BEN'S® Butter & Herb Fast Cook Recipe Long Grain & Wild Rice
1 jar (6-1/2 ounces) marinated quartered artichokes, drained and finely chopped
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon minced onion or 1 green onion with top, finely chopped
1/3 cup plain yogurt or sour cream
10 sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed
   
1. Prepare rice according to package directions. Cool completely.
2. Preheat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, combine rice, artichokes, Parmesan cheese and onion; mix well. Stir in yogurt until well blended.
3. Place one sheet of phyllo dough on a damp kitchen towel. (Keep remaining dough covered.) Lightly spray dough with nonstick cooking spray. Fold dough in half by bringing short sides of dough together; spray lightly with additional cooking spray.
4. Cut dough into four equal strips, each about 3-1/4 inches wide. For each appetizer, spoon about 1 tablespoon rice mixture onto dough about 1 inch from end of each strip. Fold 1 corner over filling to make triangle. Continue folding as you would fold a flag to form a triangle that encloses filling. Repeat with remaining dough and filling.
5. Place triangles on greased baking sheets. Spray triangles with nonstick cooking spray. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown.
 
Cook's Tips   To simplify preparation, the rice mixture can be prepared a day ahead, covered and refrigerated until ready to use. Use a pizza cutter to cut phyllo dough into strips.
