Looks delicious… but doesn’t taste that way.
I need a lesson in making cheese boreg from the true Armenians.
I must master it.
Sometimes the simplest recipes are the hardest ones for me to execute.
Or is it just the time of year?
My last major baking disaster was 3 years ago this week.

Looks like the Greek tiropita (like spanikopita but with cheese). Is it similar?

@Bridget, It is filo filo dough with a mix of cheese in between. it’s delicious as an appetizer or as an easy/light dinner paired with a salad.

Come on over sometime and I’ll show you! Cheese mixture I use is mozzarella, feta, and egg…and sometimes a little parsley.

@Diana, I made SO many mistakes.. I forgot to let the dough defrost, I used double the dough by mistake, etc. I made a mess of it! I’m going to try again- maybe I will call for some tips?

That;s the worst! I have no idea how I was sent to a post that you were in Colorado when I told you about Dana and Ed lol…I was wondering how you were still traveling. Don’t mind me. Pregnancy brain has turned to mommy brain :/
You look great by the way…I was just thinking today how hard it was then but I wish I embraced my last days more. I did but still couldn’t wait for the pregnancy to be over by week 35 or 36. Ella is the best thing ever but I did love being pregnant! Such exciting days!!!

@laury@thefitnessdish, I was laughing when I read the post. My blog got messed up yesterday- sorry about that! I know both Dana & Ed! What a small world.
I’ve loved being pregnant, but at this point I just can’t wait to feel myself again. So nice to “meet” you!

@Shaya (Eye Girl Eats), It is an Armenian dish- they serve them at all holidays and lots of social events too.

@Karineh, Thank you! I actually had a recipe, but didn’t follow it right! Whoops!

After dating an Philly Armenian for two years, I completely understand!

If it’s been 3 years since your last baking disaster it sounds like you’re pretty successful in the kitchen.
But, I completely hear you that sometimes things that seem so simple are so easy to mess up!
