Ingredients

• 1 can (8 rolls) Refrigerated crescent roll dough
• 1 cup (packed) Fresh spinach
• 1 cup (crumbled) Feta cheese
• 0.33 cup (finely chopped) Sundried tomatoes
• 0.25 cup (sliced, optional) Black olives
• 1 clove (minced) Garlic
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 1 teaspoon Extra-virgin olive oil
• 1 large (for egg wash, optional) Egg
• 1 teaspoon (optional, for egg wash) Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat to prevent sticking.

Step 2

In a medium-sized skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 3

Add the spinach to the skillet and cook for about 2 minutes, stirring frequently, until wilted. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 4

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach, crumbled feta cheese, chopped sundried tomatoes, sliced black olives (if using), and dried oregano. Mix well to combine.

Step 5

Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into 8 individual triangles along the perforations.

Step 6

Place a heaping teaspoon of the Mediterranean filling near the wide end of each triangle. Roll each triangle up, starting from the wide end and rolling toward the tip to form a crescent shape. Be sure to tuck in the edges to keep the filling inside.

Step 7

Arrange the filled crescent rolls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly apart.

Step 8

If desired, make an egg wash by whisking the egg with 1 teaspoon of water. Brush the egg wash lightly over the tops of the crescent rolls for a golden, glossy finish.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the crescent rolls are golden brown and flaky.

Step 10

Remove the rolls from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm as an appetizer, snack, or accompaniment to your favorite Mediterranean meal.
