Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 can (8 rolls) crescent roll dough
- 2 cups fresh spinach
- 4 oz cream cheese
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
- 0.25 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 large (beaten for egg wash) egg
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the fresh spinach until wilted (about 2-3 minutes). Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Once cool, chop the spinach finely and set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine cream cheese, shredded mozzarella, grated Parmesan, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add the chopped spinach and mix until well combined.
Open the can of crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 triangles.
Place about 1 tablespoon of the spinach mixture near the wider end of each triangle.
Gently roll up each triangle from the wide end to the narrow tip, tucking in the sides slightly to enclose the filling.
Place the rolls on the prepared baking sheet, seam-side down, and brush the tops lightly with the beaten egg.
Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and cooked through.
Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.
Enjoy warm as a snack, appetizer, or side dish!
