Preheat your oven to 200Β°C (392Β°F) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Thaw the frozen puff pastry sheets according to package instructions.
Rinse the spinach thoroughly and dry with a kitchen towel or salad spinner. Roughly chop the spinach and set aside.
Finely dice the onion and mince the garlic cloves.
Heat the olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the onion and sautΓ© for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Stir in the garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add the chopped spinach to the pan and cook until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Crumble the low-sodium feta cheese over the spinach mixture, add black pepper, and stir to combine.
Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.
Place approximately 2 tablespoons of the spinach and feta mixture in the center of each square.
Fold each square into a triangle, enclosing the filling. Press the edges with a fork to seal.
In a small bowl, beat the egg with 1 tablespoon of water to make an egg wash.
Brush the top of each pastry with the egg wash.
Transfer the triangles to the prepared baking sheet and bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown.
Allow the pastries to cool for a few minutes before serving.
