Ingredients
  

1 cup fresh spinach, chopped

1 cup artichoke hearts, drained and roughly chopped

1 cup cream cheese, softened

½ cup sour cream

½ cup grated Parmesan cheese

1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 teaspoon lemon juice

½ teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)

Salt and pepper to taste

1 package (1 lb) puff pastry, thawed

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

    Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped spinach, artichoke hearts, cream cheese, sour cream, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese, garlic, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined and creamy.

      Roll Out the Puff Pastry: On a lightly floured surface, roll out the thawed puff pastry sheet into a rectangle, about 1/8 inch thick.

        Spread the Filling: Evenly spread the spinach and artichoke filling over the entire surface of the rolled-out puff pastry, leaving a small border around the edges.

          Roll Up the Pastry: Starting from one end, carefully roll the puff pastry tightly into a log shape. Ensure the filling stays inside as you roll.

            Cut into Swirls: Using a sharp knife, slice the rolled pastry into 1-inch thick swirls. You should have about 12-15 swirls.

              Apply Egg Wash: Place the swirls on the prepared baking sheet. Brush the tops with beaten egg for a golden finish.

                Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the swirls are golden brown and puffed.

                  Serve: Let them cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy warm with a side of marinara sauce for dipping, if desired!
