Remember the strawberry jam that I shared with you on Monday?  Well let’s just say we’re putting it to good use today. 

These Mini Phyllo Strawberry Brie Bites are crisp phyllo shells filled with plenty of my homemade strawberry jam, chunks of brie, and they’re topped with fresh strawberries.  

These little bites are addicting, and I definitely ate my fair share of them. 🙂

I created these bites for my friend Izzy at She Likes Food because it’s her virtual baby shower today!  Izzy is having her first child very soon, and I’m thinking since it’s a boy, maybe I should’ve made blueberry brie bites?  That’s no matter, I suppose.  

The point is that I wanted to create a delicious spring appetizer for her virtual shower, and I know Izzy loves cheese so I can’t go wrong there.

If you haven’t been to Izzy’s site, you’re missing out on her ultra delicious vegetarian dishes, including her 4-Ingredient Zucchini Tator Tots, Green Chili and Sweet Potato Veggie Burgers, and Goat Cheese and Spinach Stuffed Strawberries.

 I just love her site, and I wish her the best with her new bundle of joy!  You can check out all of the other lovely dishes for this shower near the bottom of this post.

These bites were inspired by a friend of mine.  I went to her home for dinner recently, and she served some mini phyllo shells filled with brie and topped with a fresh raspberry.  She mentioned that her daughter used to be a caterer and everyone requested these bites.  I ate a few and knew I had to come up with my own version here.

Now, I love baked brie as much as the next person, but I definitely prefer it when it’s not wrapped in pastry dough.  That’s a little over the top for me on most days, not to mention that it’s pretty messy.  

These strawberry brie bites are just perfect because the phyllo shells are crispy and light, and so much more low calorie than pastry dough.  

We’re saving our calories for that brie, aren’t we? 🙂

Obviously brie is as indulgent as cheese gets, but when you have just a couple of little chunks in these phyllo shells you get just the right amount — even if you have a few you’re not going completely overboard.  I’ve told you how much I love cheese plates with jam and fruit, which is why I love these bites so much!

These brie bites are the perfect sweet and savory bites for any special occasion.  Can you imagine any appetizer being more of a hit?  I really can’t, and they’re so easy to make that you have absolutely no excuse not to.  ðŸ™‚
