Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place puff pastry on a baking sheet that's lined with parchment paper - set aside.
- Melt butter over medium heat in a frying pan. Add onions and allow to sweat.
- Add spinach and cook, mixing occasionally.
- Remove onion and spinach from heat.
- In a large bowl, fold together onion, spinach, and cream cheese.
- Crumble the bacon into the mixture and fold more.
- Using an offset spatula, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on the puff pastry, leaving one inch from the end.
- Sprinkle with cheddar cheese.
- Starting from the top (in this case, the shorter side of the rectangle), roll the puff pastry - the end that has no spread will be the portion that seals the roll.
- Cut the roll to get pinwheels that are about ½ inch wide. Place gently on lined baking sheet.
- Bake for 15-20 minutes. Serve and enjoy!

Steps:
- Preheat the broiler. Arrange the tomatoes cut-side up on one half of a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Broil the tomatoes until they begin to soften, about 2 minutes. Remove from the broiler. Arrange the English muffins on the other half of the baking sheet and brush with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring, until soft, about 2 minutes. Add the Canadian bacon and cook, stirring, until lightly browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in the spinach until wilted; season with salt and pepper. Transfer the mixture to a bowl; keep warm. Wipe out the skillet.
- Heat the remaining 1/2 tablespoon olive oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Crack the eggs into the pan, season with salt and pepper, and fry until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 5 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. Top the tomatoes with the cheese. Return the tomatoes and English muffins to the broiler; broil until the cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Divide the English muffins among plates, then top each with some of the spinach mixture and a fried egg. Serve with the broiled tomatoes.

TURKEY BACON, CUCUMBER, SPINACH AND TOMATO SANDWICH
I just love the taste of turkey bacon. I also love the fact that it's so much lower in fat then regular bacon. This sandwich is really delicious. It has a lot of layers of texture and flavors which make it quite appealing. I always buy Vegenaise because the flavor of this mayo is unlike anything else. I highly recommend this for your sandwiches. Later in the year I can use cucumber and tomato from my garden, but for now I'm able to use the spinach that over wintered.
