Directions

Step 1

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).

Peel and slice the potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds.

Add minced garlic to the onions and sauté for an additional 2 minutes.

Remove the skillet from heat. Stir in the Greek yogurt, chopped rosemary, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

Step 8

Lightly grease a 9-inch pie dish with cooking spray.

Step 9

Layer the phyllo dough sheets in the pie dish, lightly spraying with cooking spray between each layer, ensuring that the edges come up over the sides of the dish.

Pour the potato mixture into the phyllo crust and spread evenly.

Sprinkle the low-fat cheddar cheese over the potato mixture.

Beat the egg whites in a small bowl and brush the phyllo edges with them.
