Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil and sauté garlic for 30 seconds.
Add chopped spinach and cook until wilted. Season with salt and pepper. Let it cool slightly.
In a bowl, mix cooked spinach, ham, and cheese.
Cut the puff pastry into 6 equal squares.
Place a spoonful of the filling onto each square and fold into a triangle or rectangle, sealing the edges with a fork.
Brush the tops with beaten egg.
Bake for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.
Let cool slightly before serving.

Notes

You can substitute turkey or bacon for ham.
Use frozen spinach if fresh isn’t available, but drain it well.
These can be frozen before baking and cooked straight from frozen.
