I made this for a potluck supper. They came out beautifully, tasted great, and were a big hit. So what's my complaint?? I was asked to make them (a double batch, please for our church's biggest formal affair of the year!! No good deed goes unpunished :

Seriously, they were delicious. I think next time I will chill the rolls before slicing and it would make the slicing easier. Also, I liked someone's idea of sauteing some shallots, and I will add a bit of salt. But, even as the recipe is written, delicious. Oh, and I was worried how they would taste cold, since I was bringing them to the party, and not serving them hot, and it was not a problem at all.

I am an experienced baker. This resipe is horrendous on many levels: it must be baked much longer than the instructions (we all do not own commercial ovens the pastries do not "puff up" like the recipe pictures, probably because the puff pastry is worked by rolling; and worst, the results are completely vapid: almost no taste. Predictable: spinach with gruyere, mushrooms without any seasoning, onions, orshallots equals LOSER.

Man oh man! Very tasty and had to force myself to stop nibbling. Even my honey who was disappointed to learn that the green in the filling was spinach ate several. Easy, tasty and lends itself well to variations. You could use various cheeses, garlic, pine nuts...loads of possibilities.

And to those who said they were soggy, you probably did not drain the spinach enough. Also ovens cook differently which is why cook times are suggestions, not gospel. Your mileage may differ. ;D

This recipe was very good. I did notice that it's best to cook only what is being served. the reheating process tends to make it a little greasy.
Overall, I really enjoyed making and eating it.

I made these as a tester before Thanksgiving and everyone loved them. Even my hubby who hates spinach & mushrooms. I used mozzarella for the cheese and my UPS man knocked on the door after smelling these. Thanks Paula! I love ya!

Great recipe, Paula. Thanks. I make it Greek by substituting feta cheese and dill. I guess its sorta like spanakopita made with puff pastry.

Not any better than bad cookies.
It was eatable with some jam on top.

What a waste of ingredients.

Loved this and any cheese works well--to "rich and heavy": there is NO phyllo in this dish!!!
