GREEK SPINACH CHEESE ROLLS (APPETISERS)
I found these in a Diabetic cookbook! Sounds simple and delicious!! The directions indicate using a store-brought ready to use bread dough, but if you want to make your own, that's fine, too.

Steps:
- If using a store bought bread dough, allow the bread to thaw according to the package directions. Spray a standard Muffin Pan with nonstick spray. Roll out dough lightly with flour to 15X9 inch rectangle.
- Combine spinach, cheeses, green onions, and seasonings in a large bowl. Mix Well.
- Sprinkle spinach mixture evenly over the dough to within 1 inch of the edeges. Starting with long edge, roll the dough up snugly, pinching the seam close. Place the seam side down, and cut with serrated knife into about 15 slices. Place slices, cut side up, in to the prepared muffin pan.
- Bake the rolls at 375* for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Seve warm or at room temperature.
- The rolls can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.

Steps:
- In a small skillet, cook the onions and the leek in the olive oil until soft and golden brown. Remove from the heat, place in a bowl and let them cool.
- Place the spinach in a colander, sprinkle with some salt and let it sit for 20 minutes. Squeeze the spinach between the palms of your hands to drain the water. Put the spinach in a bowl along with the Feta cheese, cream cheese, dill, ground pepper, and egg. Mix well and set aside. The mixture can be prepared one day ahead.
- Pre-heat the oven to 375°F.
- Unwrap the filo and place it on a work surface with the long side nearest to you. Take one sheet of filo, brush it with some of the olive oil. Top it with a second sheet. Brush this second sheet of filo with olive oil as well. Repeat with a third layer. Cut the stacked filo sheets into four equal rectangles. Place some of the leek mixture at the bottom end of each strip. Fold both sides inwards and roll the filo up tightly. Once you are done, place the filled filo rolls on a parchment paper-lined sheet pan, seam side down. Continue with the rest of the filo. Brush the tops with a little more olive oil, sprinkle with coarse sea salt and bake in the oven for about 20 minutes or until golden.
- Remove from the oven and let stand for a few minutes. Serve as an appetizer with some plain Greek yogurt or tzatziki.
SPINACH RICOTTA ROLLS
A juicy spinach ricotta filling encased with buttery, flaky puff pastry. Great finger food or to pop into lunch boxes, thought they are definitely best served warm! Refer to the notes for make ahead instructions and the recipe video below. Some people like to serve this with tomato sauce.

Steps:
- Take pastry out of freezer.
- Place spinach in a colander and use a wooden spoon or your hands to press out excess water. You could also do this using a tea towel or paper towels. Transfer spinach to a bowl (drink the liquid, it's good for you!).
- Add remaining Filling ingredients. Mix to combine.
- Place pastry on work surface and cut in half to create 2 rectangles - you should have 6 in total.
- Divide filling between pastries, brush edge with egg then roll up, finishing with the seam side down.
- Refrigerate for 15 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat oven to 180C/350F.
- Spray 2 x baking trays with oil (any).
- Cut rolls into 4, or whatever size you want. Brush tops with egg (makes it golden) then sprinkle with sesame seeds.
- Bake for 25 minutes, then take out the top tray and move the bottom tray to the top and give it an additional 5 - 10 minutes to make it golden.
- Best served warm - the pastry is crispier and the filling is juicier. See notes for make ahead instructions.

Steps:
- Preheat a deep fryer to 350 degrees F.
- In a bowl, blend the spinach, onions, feta cheese, dill, salt and pepper, mixing well and crumbling the feta during the process.
- To build the rolls, in the center portion of each wrapper, add a tablespoon of filling. Then trace the cornstarch paste around the edges of the wrapper. To seal, fold the bottom tip over the filling, and then bring the left and right sides into the center. To finish, simply roll to bring the top until the roll is closed.
- Drop the spanakopita rolls into the fryer. Lower them slowly into the oil so they set. Once crisp, after about 2 minutes, remove from the fryer. Remember they will continue to cook two shades darker. Put on paper towels to absorb the grease.
- Season the eggrolls and serve with tzatziki sauce, aioli or other sauce.
