Ingredients

• 2 sheets Frozen puff pastry sheets
• 6 cups Fresh spinach leaves
• 1 cup Low sodium feta cheese
• 1 tablespoon Unsalted butter
• 2 Garlic cloves, minced
• 0.5 cup Red onion, finely chopped
• 1 Egg
• 1 tablespoon Milk
• 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1 tablespoon Fresh dill, chopped
• 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour (for dusting)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

Thaw the frozen puff pastry sheets according to the package instructions and keep them refrigerated until ready to use.

Step 3

In a large skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and sauté for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 5

Toss in the fresh spinach leaves and sauté until wilted, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly.

Step 6

In a mixing bowl, combine the sautéed spinach mixture, low sodium feta cheese, ground black pepper, and fresh dill. Stir until evenly mixed.

Step 7

Lightly flour a clean surface and roll out each puff pastry sheet to smooth any creases. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares, resulting in 8 total pieces.

Step 8

Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the spinach and feta mixture into the center of each puff pastry square.

Step 9

Fold each square into a triangle, sealing the edges by pressing them together with a fork. Ensure the edges are fully sealed to prevent filling from escaping.

Step 10

Transfer the filled triangles onto the prepared baking sheet, leaving space between each piece.

Step 11

In a small bowl, whisk together the egg and milk to make an egg wash. Brush the tops of the puff pastries with the egg wash to give them a golden, glossy finish.

Step 12

Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the pastries are puffed and golden brown.

Step 13

Remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly before serving. Enjoy your low sodium spinach and feta puff pastries warm or at room temperature!
