Mix the eggs, cheeses and seasonings together. Using two sheets of filo at a time, cut into 4 long strips; brush with butter; place 1 tablespoon of the cheese mixture on one corner and fold in a triangle shape, end over end. Place on a cookie sheet. At this point they can be covered and refrigerated for up to 24 hours. Brush with the melted butter and bake until puffed and golden - about 20 minutes. Note : Frozen filo should be thawed completely before using so that the thin sheets can be separated without tearing. Thaw them overnight in the refrigerator or for several hours at room temperature. They dry quickly so keep them covered with waxed paper and a damp towel until they are shaped and brushed with the butter. Source : kalee orixee! by the Daughters of Penelope; 1991.
