I'd bought some puff pastry sheets then didn't know what to do with them, so went online to find some recipes for them  I found this one and tried it......they are yummy!!!  Can't show you a pic of them 'cause we ate 'em all!!

Ingredients

1/2 of a 17.3-ounce package Puff Pastry Sheets  (1 sheet), thawed
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
1/2 cup shredded Muenster cheese OR Monterey Jack cheese
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 green onion, chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1 package (about 10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained

Directions

Heat the oven to 400°F. 

Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork or whisk.

Stir the Muenster cheese, Parmesan cheese, onion and garlic powder in a medium bowl.

Unfold the pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. 
Brush the pastry sheet with the egg mixture. 
Top with the cheese mixture and spinach. 
Starting with a short side, roll up like a jelly roll.
Cut into 20 (1/2-inch) slices. 
Place the slices, cut-side down, onto baking sheets. 
Brush the slices with the egg mixture.

Bake for 15 minutes or until the pastries are golden brown. 
Remove the pastries from the baking sheets and let cool on wire racks for 10 minutes.

Tip: Make sure to remove as much liquid as you can from the spinach before adding it to the pastry. If it's too wet, it may make the pastry soggy.
