I need to make something for a "bring and share" lunch. Preferably finger food and veggie. Something in pastry/parcel type thing? Help please!

What about something like a spanakopita cut into small squares?

allaloneandlost · 14/02/2024 15:37

Samosas and pakoras. Vegetable pasties.

Going to suggest the same.

Easy recipe:

Filling of sautéed spinach, onion, garlic and pinch of oregano. Then crumble in feta.

Filo pastry (bought) then melt butter, cut sheets into squares and brush butter, put filling in and fold into triangles putting butter between layers

Agree with PP that spanakopita would be great.

Spanish omelette
Falafel
Samosas - recipe here https://www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/vegetable-samosas
Pizza pinwheels - maybe a bit 'kiddy' but I really like them and find them tasty too - basically get a sheet of puff pastry, top with a simple tomato sauce (I guess you could just use puree too), grated cheese and whatever extra flavours/ toppings you like then roll tightly and slice - bake in oven

Pakoras, bhajis, samosas, falafels, veggie or vegan stuffed vine leaves, quiches, mini tortillas made in muffin tins.

Bruschetta with yummy things on top

Lollypop701 · 14/02/2024 15:51

If there’s a lot of pastry and sandwiches, maybe Greek salad filling in a lettuce leaf

filo spinach and feta triangles
Cheese and pesto twists
Chestnut squash and sage sausage rolls go down a treat when I do a veggie buffet (we aren’t veggie but have large amounts of family members who are). These ones are Jamie Oliver I think, I found the recipe online.

Is spanakopita OK cold? Its going to be served cold.

Spanakopita is definitely ok cold and still delicious 😊

Illbefinejustbloodyfine · 15/02/2024 08:11

Made spanakopita parcels. Was shocked at how long the pastey took to cook! They look ok and smelt great so fingers crossed they go down well.

Good choice, I’m sure they’ll be lovely 😊

Illbefinejustbloodyfine · 15/02/2024 12:32

Theyre OK, need more filling but not bad for a first attempt! I wasn't sure about the folding/wrapping and didn't put enough in.
