Aug 12th 2024
Ingredients:
- 1 (10-oz.) package frozen chopped spinach
- 1 sheet from a 17-1/4-oz. package frozen puff pastry, thawed
- 1 egg, well beaten
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 ounce Monterey Jack cheese, grated
- 1/4 cup grated Parmeson cheese
- 1 green onion, chopped with top
- 1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon Tabasco sauce
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
Directions:
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Thaw
spinach by running hot water over the spinach in a colander; then press
with a fork to drain thoroughly. Place the opened sheet of the puffed
pastry on a lightly floured board. Beat egg and water together; then
brush one side of the pastry with the egg mixture, taking care to
heavily coat all of the edges. In a bowl, combine the drained spinach
and the remaining ingredients; mix very well. Spread the spinach
mixture over the the entire surface of the pastry. On the longest side
of the pastry, begin to roll the pastry jelly roll style; place the
ending edge down. If time permits, chill the roll in the refrigerator
before slicing in 12 equal pinwheels. Place the pinwheels on a
spray-oil prepared cookie sheet, and brush the tops with the remaining
egg mixture. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes or until golden
and lightly browned. Makes 12.
