Ingredients: 1 cup roasted butternut squash puree (frozen okay, thawed); 4 sheets phyllo dough (thawed if frozen); 3 tbsp olive oil; ½ tsp ground cumin; ¼ tsp cinnamon; Salt and pepper to taste; 1 cup crumbled feta cheese; 3 tbsp Greek yogurt; 1 tbsp lemon juice; 1 tbsp fresh mint, finely chopped; 1 clove garlic, minced

Paper-thin phyllo sheets wrap around a simple filling of roasted butternut squash spiced with cumin, then baked until shattering-crisp and golden. Dunked into whipped feta spiked with lemon and mint—a sophisticated, craveable opener that feels restaurant-quality but needs zero fussing.
