FETA AND SPINACH ROLLS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200c.
• Mix all ingredients together (except pastry sheets).
• Lay pastry sheets (with plastic attached) out on your counter.
• Fill a large piping bag (no nozzle) with the mix and squeeze out a long line of mix down the long edge of the pastry-about 1/2 an inch in from that edge.
• No piping bag? Divide mix in 4 and spoon this along the long edge.
• Roll up, peeling the plastic away as you roll.
• Seal the inner edge with a little water.
• Cut each of these rolls into three, then cut each smaller roll ALMOST through in the middle (leave the bottom intact). When they are cooked, I cut them right through to make a bite sized roll, but cooking them this way keeps them moister.
• Place on a baking tray, brush each with a little milk, then cook in pre heated oven for about 20 minutes or until golden brown on top and cooked through.
