Ingredients
  

1 package (9 oz) of fresh spinach, chopped

1 cup ricotta cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 clove garlic, minced

1/2 tsp nutmeg

Salt and pepper to taste

1 package (1 lb) puff pastry (2 sheets), thawed

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Olive oil for drizzling

Marinara sauce (for serving)

Instructions
 

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

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add a drizzle of olive oil and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant.

      Add the chopped spinach to the skillet, cooking until wilted. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.

        In a mixing bowl, combine the cooled spinach, ricotta cheese, mozzarella cheese, Parmesan cheese, nutmeg, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are thoroughly combined.

          On a floured surface, roll out each puff pastry sheet to smoothen. Cut each sheet into rectangular shapes, about 6x4 inches.

            Place a generous tablespoon of the spinach and ricotta mixture in the center of each rectangle.

              Fold the pastry over the filling and seal the edges by pressing with a fork or your fingers. Ensure there are no openings.

                Brush the tops of the rolls with the beaten egg to give them a golden finish.

                  Place the rolled pastries on the prepared baking sheet. Optionally, drizzle with a little olive oil for extra crispiness.

                    Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the rolls are golden brown.

                      Allow to cool slightly before serving. Serve hot with marinara sauce for dipping.
