Ingredients for your new favorite appetizer ideas:

• 1can (8 oz) Pillsbury™ refrigerated crescent dinner rolls
• 1 box frozen spinach, thawed
• One small jar of marinated artichoke hearts (cut in halves or quarters)
• One jar of roasted red peppers, cut into 1 inch long strips
• Feta cheese, crumbled
• Mini Muffin baking pan
• Cooking spray

Instructions:

1. Preheat oven to 375Fº. Spray 24 mini muffin cups with cooking spray.
2. Unroll dough into 1 large rectangle. After you have a smooth, 12×8-inch rectangle, using pizza cutter, cut dough into 6 rows by 4 rows, to make 24 squares of dough.

3. Gently press the dough squares into the mini muffin cups.

4. Add cut artichokes and a bit of spinach.

5. Then add a strip of roasted red pepper and a sprinkle or small chunk of feta cheese (a potent savory cheese,) to each cup.

6. Bake 11 to 13 minutes at 375 degrees or until the dough is deep golden brown. Then your little bites will be done and ready to eat after they cool for a bit. These are the perfect way to whet the pallet before the main dish is served! They are the perfect appetizer to easily serve much flavor with just 4 easy ingredients!
