Sautéing the tomato with the scallion removes most of the moisture and helps keep the rolls from getting soggy.
-
cooking spray2 spray(s)
-
olive oil1 Tbsp
-
uncooked scallion(s)5 medium, green and white parts, chopped
-
plum tomato(es)2 large, diced
-
fresh sage1 Tbsp, chopped, or 3/4 tsp dried sage
-
fresh baby spinach4 ½ cup(s), loosely packed leaves
-
reduced fat crescent roll dough8 oz, refrigerated
-
Gruyère cheese2 oz, shredded (about 1/2 c)
-
black pepper¼ tsp, (or to taste)
-
kosher salt½ tsp, (or to taste)
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Coat an 8-inch round cake pan coated with cooking spray.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add scallions; cook, stirring frequently, until softened, 3 minutes. Add tomato and sage to pan; cook until tomato is soft, stirring occasionally, 3-4 minutes. Add spinach and cook just until spinach wilts, stirring frequently, 1-2 minutes. Remove mixture from pan; cool slightly.
- Unroll dough; separate into 2 long rectangles and place side by side. Lift the edge of one rectangle and place it just slightly over the other, so it overlaps the other rectangle by ½-inch; press seams together to seal.
- Arrange spinach mixture over top of dough; sprinkle with cheese and pepper. Starting at one long edge, rollup dough jelly-roll fashion; pinch seam to seal. Cut crosswise into 8 slices. Arrange slices, cut sides up, in prepared pan; sprinkle tops with salt.
- Bake until puffed and well browned, about 20 minutes.
- Serving size: 1 roll
