Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line baking sheet with parchment paper.

In medium bowl, mix together ricotta cheese, feta cheese, parmesan cheese, eggs, parsley, and season with salt & pepper as desired. Place about 1 tablespoon of filling in center of each square; top with a few spinach leaves. Moisten edges lightly with water; fold into triangle shape and seal; place onto prepared baking sheet. Brush top of each triangle with the beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seedsl before baking.

Step 4

Bake in preheated oven for 15 minutes or until golden brown and crisp on the outside and the filling is cooked through. Serve warm or at room temperature
