Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup cooked spinach drained and chopped
  • 1 cup diced ham
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 package 1 sheet puff pastry, thawed
  • 1 egg beaten (for egg wash)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked spinach, diced ham, shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  3. Roll out the puff pastry on a lightly floured surface to smooth out any creases. Cut the pastry into squares, approximately 4 inches by 4 inches.
  4. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of each pastry square. Be careful not to overfill.
  5. Fold the corners of the pastry over the filling to form a triangle or rectangle, depending on your preference. Press the edges to seal and use a fork to crimp the edges for a decorative touch.
  6. Brush the tops of the puffs with the beaten egg to give them a golden color when baked.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the puffs are golden brown and flaky.
  8. Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
