Spinach Artichoke Cups

Ingredients | yields 4 dozen bites

• 2 tubes (13.8 oz) of Pillsbury crescent roll dough
• 1 (8 oz.) package softened cream cheese (I used reduced fat)
• 1/2 cup grated parmesan or romano cheese
• 1 (14 oz.) can artichoke hearts, drained and coarsely chopped
• 1 cup frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained or 2 cups torn fresh spinach
• shredded mozzarella (optional, though in my opinion completely necessary)
• 2 teaspoons basil pesto
• 2 teaspoons olive oil

Directions

Pre-heat oven to 425°F.

Cups

Lightly spray 12 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. Place Pillsbury crescent dough onto lightly floured cutting board. Roll dough into 12x8-inch rectangle. Cut into 12 even squares. Place 1 square in each muffin cup, gently pressing dough in bottom and up side of each cup.

Filling

In 3-quart saucepan, heat olive oil. Add spinach; cook and stir thoroughly. Add artichokes and cream cheese; stir until cheese is melted. Stir in pesto and parmesan. Use an ice cream scoop to scoop 1 cup of filling into each dough-filled muffin cups.

Bake 10 to 12 minutes or until crust edges are golden brown. Cool 5 minutes before serving.

Viola! Delicious Spinach Artichoke bites! Perfect for a new twist to Thanksgiving dinner or as an appetizer for you and your family. Enjoy!
