  1. So I did basically the same recipe just with a few changes. Regular biscuits, flattened. Sprinkled mozzarella cheese. Sauteed minced garlic until golden brown, then added in the fresh chopped spinach. Cooked the spinach down, set to the side to cool a little bit. Add spinach to cheese on flattened biscuits, sprinkle with more cheese if you want. Fold over and pinch sides together to get a half circle or any shape really, but pinch opposing dough sides together. Then follow the rest of the recipe the same. I used olive oil instead of egg whites. And baked it to the biscuit directions on the can.
     
  2. thought this needed something
     
  3. I used one box of frozen chopped spinach and subbed feta for the parmesian. We all thought they were really flavorless. I probably should have tried it as written first, so maybe I'll give it another try as written.
     
  4. A hit at the recent party I attended... and so easy! I used frozen, as recommended, (cooked, drained, and squeezed) spinach. Just make sure that you close the rectangles very well before adding the spinach/cheese. I also didn't use the egg white... YUM!
     
  5. I made the recipe as written, but I really think it could use some adjustments. I like the basic flavor, though. I think next time I'll use the frozen chopped spinach and mozzarella instead of the parmesan. I wish I'd seen the review that mentioned using cream cheese. That would probably be good. I also could only fit about half of the spinach in there.
