Ingredients

• 1 sheet puff pastry sheet
• 2 cups fresh spinach
• 0.333 cup sun-dried tomatoes
• 4 ounces cream cheese
• 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 large egg
• 1 tablespoon water
• 0.25 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 2

Thaw a puff pastry sheet according to the package instructions and set aside.

Step 3

In a medium skillet over medium heat, sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 4

Add the fresh spinach to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes until wilted. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 5

Chop the sun-dried tomatoes into small pieces and set aside.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, grated Parmesan cheese, salt, and black pepper. Stir until smooth and well-mixed.

Step 7

Add the cooked spinach and sun-dried tomatoes to the cream cheese mixture, stirring to combine.

Step 8

Unroll the thawed puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Spread the spinach and sun-dried tomato mixture evenly over the pastry, leaving a 1-inch border at one edge.

Step 9

Starting from the edge opposite the border, tightly roll the pastry into a log.

Step 10

Using a sharp knife, cut the log into 12 evenly sized slices and place them cut-side up on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 11

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and water to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of the spirals with the egg wash for a golden finish.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 18-20 minutes, or until the pastry is puffed and golden brown.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature.
