Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Thaw frozen spinach in microwave according to package directions or by running under warm water. Drain spinach, squeezing the excess liquid from it. In a bowl, mix the spinach, feta, garlic, pepper, and nutmeg together.
- Flour a clean, dry countertop or other flat working surface. Lay out the puff pasty on the floured surface. Flour the top of the dough. Roll out the puff pastry until it is half as thick (about 1/8-inch) and about 24 by 12 inches. Trim edges to size if necessary. Cut into 3-inch strips crosswise and lengthwise, making 32 (3-inch) squares. Make sure the squares are well floured then stack them in a little pile.
- Fill a little dish with some room temperature water. Imagine each square you work with is separated in half by a diagonal. Place a couple teaspoons of filling in the top half. Dip a finger into the water and moisten the edges of the top half with water. Fold the bottom half to meet the edges of the top half. Use a fork to seal the edges.
- Place finished pockets on a nonstick baking sheet and bake about 15 minutes until golden brown and puffy. Serve warm.
CHEESY SPINACH PUFF PASTRY BITES
When I travel home to be with my nieces and nephews, my brother always wants me to cook new things for the kids. What I've done in this recipe is take the crowd-pleasing creamy spinach dip that I make and pair it with puff pastry. Because what kid (or adult!) doesn't love puff pastry?

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook until crisp, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon, leaving the bacon fat in the pan. Set the bacon aside.
- Return the skillet to medium-high heat and add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 minute. Stir in the garlic. Add the spinach and cook until the spinach is wilted, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the salt and pepper and set aside.
- Stir 1 egg, the cream cheese, Parmesan, feta and chives together in a large bowl. Stir in the spinach mixture and the bacon. Set aside.
- Dust a work surface with flour and roll out the pastry with a rolling pin to smooth out any creases. Cut into 4-inch pieces; you should get about 9 squares. Place the squares on the prepared baking sheet.
- In a small bowl, beat the remaining egg together with a splash of water. Using a pastry brush, brush two adjacent sides of each square with the egg wash. Place a heaping tablespoon of filling into the center of the square. Fold the dough over the filling, forming a triangle, and crimp the edges together. Place the bites in the fridge for 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the fridge and brush the tops with the remaining egg wash. Bake until golden brown and puffed, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 to 10 minutes before eating.
EASY CHEESY SPINACH
Steps:
- Heat the butter in a 12-inch saute pan over moderate heat. Add the onions and cook until soft, about 8 minutes. Whisk in the cream cheese and let melt. Fold in the spinach until evenly combined. Add up to 3 tablespoons water if the mixture seems too dry. Sprinkle the nutmeg on top and season with salt and pepper.
- BYOC: Lemon zest and juice would bring a little bit of sunshine to this dish. Just add with the salt and pepper.
SPINACH CHEESE COCKTAIL BITES
This is a nice little appetizer to serve at parties or with cocktails. The great thing about it is that you make them ahead, freeze and reheat when you are ready to serve them. Nice for when you have unexpected company.

- Fresh Spinach Guacamole. If you’re looking for a way to ease into spinach appetizers, fresh spinach guacamole is just the thing. Adding spinach makes your guac even healthier, but it doesn’t alter its taste.
- Mini-Spanakopita Triangles. I love spanakopita triangles so much that I regularly make them for lunch, dinner, or snacks – not just appetizers. The flaky, crispy phyllo dough gives them a delightful texture, and the feta cheese and dill provide a bright, tangy flavor.
- 3-Ingredient Spinach and Artichoke Dip Pinwheels. If you’re looking for something quick and easy, you can’t go wrong with these three-ingredient pinwheels.
- Rainbow Veggie Pinwheels. Rainbow veggie pinwheels are excellent, too, and they’re a lot of fun because of all their colors. I use spinach herb or sun-dried tomato tortillas for extra vibrancy.
- Spinach Balls Appetizer. These interesting green balls may be small, but they have a ton of flavor. They’re incredibly herb-flavored, and they’ll have a slight crunch, thanks to the breadcrumbs.
- Applebee’s Spinach Artichoke Dip Recipe. Of all the spinach artichoke dip varieties out there, Applebee’s dip is probably the best. It’s so creamy and cheesy, and the balance of spinach, artichokes, and garlic alfredo is perfect.
- Spinach Puffs. It’s hard to know what to like best about spinach puffs – the warm, buttery puff pastry shell, the salty bacon, the tangy feta, or something else.
- Mini Spinach and Ricotta Calzone Bites. You can whip up a batch of mini spinach and ricotta calzone bites in just 20 minutes with only seven ingredients.
- Spinach-Stuffed Mushrooms. Stuffed mushrooms are always a big hit when it comes to appetizers, and you can whip up a dozen in less than 30 minutes, so they’re kind of awesome.
- Ham & Cheese Hot Spinach Dip. This dip is for anyone who loves cheesy spinach dip but also needs some meat in their appetizers. It’s a simple one to pull together.
