SPINACH PUFFS

INGREDIENTS:
SPINACH FILLING:

• 1 10 oz. package frozen chopped spinach, thawed
• 1/2 cup feta cheese, crumbled
• 1/2 cup scallions, finely chopped
• 1 tsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 tsp fresh garlic, pressed
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 2 large eggs, separated

CRUST (I.E. PUFF):

• 1 - 2 sheets frozen puff pastry, thawed but still cold (leave it in the fridge to thaw)

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Press the thawed spinach against a strainer with your hands until all of the water is out - you want to get as much out as possible so you don't have a soggy filling.
2. Mix the spinach, feta, scallions, olive oil, parsley, garlic and some salt and pepper - taste the mixture and adjust the seasonings as you please.
3. Beat one of the eggs in a small bowl and then fold it into the spinach mixture.
4. Roll out the defrosted puff pastry dough on a floured surface and cut it into 12 squares if you're planning on using mini muffin tins. I started by cutting my first sheet into 3 long strips and then into 4 smaller squares. Depending on how much filling you use in each puff, you might need to use the second sheet of puff pastry.
