- Handful of spinach
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 1/2 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 egg
- Pinch of salt

Method
Step 1
Start by heating some oil in a pan, add in the minced garlic and sauce for a minute. Add in spinach and cook until spinach has wilted down.
Step 2
To a bowl, add ricotta, mozzarella, 1 egg, the garlic spinach, salt, and pepper. Mix to combine.
Step 3
Thaw the puff pastry sheets and using a rolling pin, roll it out to make them thinner.
Step 4
Place one piece onto the ice cube tray and using your fingers press down onto each space making a pocket.
Step 5
Fill each space with the ricotta mixture and add the rolled out second piece of pastry dough. Pinch all the corners well, trim the excess pastry dough and freeze.
Step 6
Once frozen, remove from the tray. Cut into individual pieces and either store them in the freezer up to 3 months or brush egg wash on them and bake under 400F for about 15 minutes. Enjoy!
