🍃 Ingredients (Makes 12–16 Squares)

🔪 Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Preheat & Prepare
Set your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat.

2. Mix the Filling
In a bowl, stir together spinach, mozzarella, Parmesan, cream cheese (if using), garlic, pepper, and red pepper flakes. Mix well and adjust seasoning to taste.

3. Roll & Cut the Pastry
Unroll puff pastry on a lightly floured surface.
Cut into 2–3 inch squares—you’ll get around 12 to 16 pieces.

4. Fill & Fold
Spoon 1–2 teaspoons of filling onto half of each square.
Fold over to form a triangle or rectangle.
Press edges to seal, and crimp with a fork for a tidy finish.

5. Add Toppings
Brush each piece with egg wash for a golden finish.
Sprinkle on your favorite toppings—sesame seeds, bagel seasoning, or extra Parmesan.

6. Bake
Arrange on your prepared sheet, leaving space between each.
Bake for 15–20 minutes until puffed and deeply golden.

7. Serve & Savor
Cool slightly before serving. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
Pair with marinara, ranch, or aioli for that dip-worthy finale.
