Spinach Rolls
1 lb. fresh pizza dough (or store bought)
1 lb. fresh spinach, washed, drained and coarsely chopped (frozen spinach wont work; too much water)
1 small onion, chopped
grated cheese
pinch of red pepper
olive oil
1 egg beaten
Roll out pizza dough into thin rectangle and place on greased cookie sheet.
Spread chopped spinach evenly over dough. Sprinkle with chopped onion, cheese and pepper. Drizzle olive oil over, then gently roll dough jellyroll fashion, making sure the seams is on the bottom shape into a crescent.
Using a fork, poke 8 to 10 holes in the dough, so it can breathe and brush roll with beaten egg.
Bake at 350º for 40 minutes. Slice and serve cold or hot.
Tip: you may use chopped broccoli or shredded mozzarella for spinach.
