250 g chopped spinach, fresh or frozen and defrosted

Variations
- You can change the flavour and add colour by swapping ½ a cup of the spinach for ½ a cup of corn kernels or diced red capsicum.
- Make mini versions with smaller dinner rolls for a hot recess snack in winter. If you use dinner rolls it will make 2.5x the quantity you select.
Tips
- When baked, pop in your pie warmer or very low oven to keep warm.
- Bake the rolls as soon as they’re filled so you don’t end up with a soggy crust.
