Default Favorite thing to do with Phyllo?

I found some whole wheat Phyllo dough at PCC Market. I didn't even know
such a thing existed! So now... What to make with it?

In the old days I might have made Baklava. I love the stuff! But I can't
have butter now and really shouldn't have sugar either. I have also made
various filled pastries. And little nests which I filled with an apple pie
type filling. I am thinking I might go with those. Daughter has been on a
baked apple kick. I bake the slices with cinnamon, a little salt, a little
Nucoa and some brown sugar Splenda. Yes, I know there is actual sugar in
that but I only use a small amount.

Something savory would be nice as well, but not sure what. I have tried
Spanokopita in the past and although I liked the idea of it, I didn't like
the end result. I do remember making something with a black olive filling
in it but I don't have that recipe any more. I made some things to take to
a potluck at work and this woman who hates olives was wolfing them down.
She thought the filling was mushroom! Ha! I wish I could remember what was
in those because they really were good.

So... What do you do with your Phyllo?
