• Mix spinach, artichoke hearts, cream cheese, mayonnaise, feta cheese, Parmesan cheese, and garlic together in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper.
• Remove rolls from each can and separate into 8 triangles for a total of 24. Place a heaping tablespoon spinach-cream cheese mixture on the wide end of each triangle. Roll up each triangle, starting at the wide end; fold the ends underneath and dredge in bread crumbs to coat. Place seam-side down on the prepared baking sheet.

SPINACH-ARTICHOKE STUFFED ROLLS

Steps:

• In a medium pot, heat the milk over medium-low until just warm to the touch (about 95 degrees).
• In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment, combine the flour, sugar, egg and egg yolk, butter, yeast, salt and the warm milk. Mix on low speed for 4 minutes, then increase the speed to medium and mix until smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer the dough to a lightly greased bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 1 hour.
• Divide the dough into 9 even pieces (about 120 grams each), and shape them into balls using your hands. Cover with plastic wrap and let rest for 15 minutes while you make the filling.
• Make the filling: In a medium bowl, stir together the artichoke hearts, spinach, cream cheese, Parmesan, salt and pepper. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Use the palm of your hand to flatten each ball of dough to about 1/2-inch thick and about 4 1/2 to 5 inches wide. Scoop 3 tablespoons of filling into the center. Wrap the dough around the filling and pinch firmly to seal. Use your hands to shape the dough into balls. Repeat with the remaining dough.
• Transfer rolls seam side down to the prepared baking sheet, spacing them evenly and staggering slightly. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise for 30 to 35 minutes in a warm place.
• Heat the oven to 375 degrees. In a small bowl, beat the remaining egg. Brush the surface of each roll with the beaten egg and sprinkle generously with sesame seeds. Bake until the rolls are golden-brown, 25 to 30 minutes. (They may spread and touch while baking, which is O.K.)
• Let cool for 10 to 15 minutes before serving. Wrap leftover rolls tightly in plastic wrap and store at room temperature.

GIANT SPINACH DIP-STUFFED PRETZEL

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray.
• Combine the spinach and artichoke hearts in a large clean kitchen towel and wring out any excess moisture. Transfer to a large bowl.
• Add the cream cheese, Parmesan, garlic powder, a pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Use a handheld mixer to beat until combined, about 2 minutes.
• Unroll the sheets of pizza dough and stack them. Use a rolling pin to roll the dough out to a 36-inch-by-5-inch plank. Spread the spinach dip in an even line down the center of the dough. Tear each piece of string cheese lengthwise into 4 strips ; line up the strips along the top and bottom of the line of spinach dip, creating a border of cheese around the dip. Fold the dough in half lengthwise. Pinch the edges together in the center to seal in the filling. Use your hands to roll and stretch the dough into a 5-foot rope.
• Form the rope into a giant pretzel shape and place on the prepared baking sheet. Bake until the dough is almost completely cooked through and golden brown all over, about 30 minutes.
• Dissolve the baking soda in 1/2 cup hot water. Brush the pretzel all over with the soda water and continue baking until dark golden brown and crisp, about 10 minutes more. Brush with the butter and sprinkle with salt. Let cool 5 minutes, then serve warm.

SPINACH & ARTICHOKE STUFFED ROLLED BREAD

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the artichoke hearts, spinach, provolone, Asiago, lemon zest, thyme, garlic, salt and ground pepper.
• Unroll the pizza dough onto on a baking sheet with the long edge facing you. Be careful not to stretch it too much.
• Pour the filling into the middle of the dough, shaping it into a thick log running lengthwise down the center of the dough.
• Fold one edge of the pizza dough over the filling, then fold the other half over to seal the filling inside the dough. Turn the stuffed bread over on the sheet pan so the seam is on the bottom. Brush with EVOO and sprinkle sesame seeds over the top.
• Bake the stuffed bread until evenly golden brown, 15-18 minutes. Cool slightly before slicing.

Heat in the microwave in 30-second increments, stirring between each, until warm and smooth, about 2 minutes.
• Spread 1/2 cup cheese sauce on the bottom of a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Stuff a heaping tablespoon of the spinach mixture into each shell and arrange them in the baking dish seam-side up. Pour the remaining cheese sauce over the shells, cover with foil and bake until the cheese is melted and bubbling, 13 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, mix the olive oil, breadcrumbs and parsley, if using, in a small bowl until well combined. Remove the foil from the baking dish and sprinkle the mixture over the shells. Bake until the breadcrumbs are golden brown and the cheese is bubbly, about 10 minutes.
