Spinach Cheese Ham Pinwheels

Recipe from Jen Hoyt.

Ingredients

1 package of crescent rolls
8 slices Provolone cheese
8 slices ham
1 package frozen spinach, thawed

Directions

1. Pre-grease a cookie sheet. Pre-heat oven to 400ยบ
2. Take frozen spinach. Place into a collender or strainer, cover with a paper towel. Place a weight on top of the towel (a large can of spaghetti sauce works great for this). Let this sit for a little while until the spinach drains.
3. Remove crescent rolls from can. Using two crescent rolls, overlap slightly and flatten the seam between them.
4. Pat the Provolone cheese dry with a paper towel. Lay two slices of Provolone cheese on the flattened dough.
5. Pat the ham dry with a paper towel. Lay two slices of ham on the flattened dough.
6. Spread 1/4 of the spinach on top of the ham.
7. Carefully role the layers into a cylinder. Using a large knife, cut the cylinder into slices, each about 1/2 inch thick. Cut the slices one at a time, carefully picking it up and placing it onto the pre-greased cookie sheet. Space them apart because some expansion will take place during cooking.
8. Allow pinwheels to bake for at least 10-20 minutes. Keep an eye on them! They should brown, but not too much.

Tips

To make these non-pork, use sliced turkey instead of ham.
