Greek Spinach Muffin Recipe: Easy & Delicious!

INGREDIENTS

1 loaf (1 pound) frozen bread dough 1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry 3/4 cup (3 ounces) crumbled feta cheese 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded reduced-fat Monterey Jack cheese 4 green onions, thinly sliced 1 teaspoon dried dill weed 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

PREPARATION:

1. Thaw bread dough according to package directions. Spray 15 muffin cups with nonstick cooking spray; set aside. Roll out dough on lightly floured surface to 15X9-inch rectangle. (If dough is springy and difficult to roll, cover with plastic wrap and let rest 5 minutes to relax.) Position dough so long edge runs parallel to edge of work surface.
2. Combine spinach, cheeses, green onions, dill weed, garlic powder and pepper in large bowl; mix well.
3. Sprinkle spinach mixture evenly over dough to within 1 inch of long edges. Starting at long edge, roll up snugly, pinching seam closed. Place seam side down; cut roll with serrated knife into 1-inch-wide slices. Place slices, cut sides up, in prepared muffin cups. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand 30 minutes in warm place until rolls are slightly puffy.
4. Preheat oven to 375°F. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden. Serve warm or at room temperature. Rolls can be stored in refrigerator in airtight container up to 2 days. Garnish, if desired.
