   6                    Eggs -- separated
   1       lb           Feta cheese -- crumbled
  12       oz           Cottage cheese
     1/4   c            Blue cheese -- crumbled (opt.)
  16       oz           Filo pastry sheets

  Beat egg whites until stiff; add yolks and continue
  beating until well blended.  Add cheese and mix well.
  
  Cut pastry sheets into quarters or into 8x6-inch
  pieces.  Brush pastry with hot melted butter.  Place a
  teaspoon of cheese mixture in bottom center of pastry
  strip, folding over one-third on each side and
  brushing again with butter; roll like a jellyroll.

  minutes.
