Double the garlic and motz if you actually want flavor! Side of tomato sauce works great for dipping.

Really tasty, but time consuming when it comes to folding them up. Took me about an hour to make half of this.

I added pesto to the filling and served with marinara.

Delicious! Before you put the spinach inside of the dough sauté it in olive oil and garlic to take out moisture also, feta cheese is a great substitute for Ricardo.
