Spinach Cheese Swirls Plus image

Another great recipe from Pepperidge Farms- these tempting appetizers look like they're difficult to make...but they're not. They feature a spinach, onion and cheese filling simply rolled up in flaky puff party and sliced into pinwheels.

I've tried several different spinach cheese swirl recipes and this one is by far the best. The dough is perfect and the filling is flavorful and cheesy.

I found that the dough was a little difficult to work with. It was very sticky and hard to roll out.

These swirls were a little too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try baking them next time instead of frying them.
