Blanch the greens, Mix in the cream cheese, onion, garlic, tarragon, dill, parsley (yum!), spread over the pastry or tortilla. Serve as is or with some marinara. You can use store bought vegan cream cheese or make your own (see recipe notes). To make this gluten-free use a large gluten-free tortilla, spread the mixture, roll it up. Chill and slice (eg. Samosa Tortilla Pinwheels). If you can’t find vegan puff pastry, use a sturdy pie crust or make one with chilled coconut oil. You can also make this into Spinach Cheese Pizza Rolls! Use my 20 Min Pizza dough, add the filling, roll, slice, no need to refrigerate and bake.
Make these Spinach Cheese Pinwheels for the next get together!

Vegan Spinach Cheese Pinwheels
Ingredients
- 2 vegan puff pastry sheets, thawed
- 5 to 6 oz baby spinach or chopped spinach, , thawed if frozen
- 8 oz plain vegan cream cheese, , I use kite hill.
- 1/2 tsp dried parsley
- 1/4 tsp dried thyme
- 1/4 tsp dried taragon
- 1/2 tsp dried dill
- 1 tsp onion flakes
- 3/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/3 tsp salt, depends on the saltyness of the cream cheese
- a dash of cinnamon and nutmeg
Instructions
- Thaw the puff pastry if you havent already. Leave it on the counter till soft enough to handle.
- Add fresh spinach to a bowl. Pour boiling water and let sit for 3 minutes, then drain and use. If using frozen, thaw , squeeze excess moisture and use.
- Add the drained spinach to a bowl. Add cream cheese* (see note to make your own), herbs and spices. Mix well, taste and adjust flavor.
- Place the 1 puff pastry sheet on the other and roll it out to a 12 by 14-16 inch rectangle. Spread the spinach mixture on rolled puff pastry evenly. Roll the puff pastry to make a roll. This roll will be soft at this point. Refrigerate or freeze to harden, about 1 hour. (at this point you can leave the roll refrigerated for upto a day, then slice and bake when needed)
- Slice with a sharp knife or a serrated knife into 1/2 inch or less thickness. Place on parchment lined baking sheet and bake at 400 deg F for 25 to 30 mins or until golden. Cool for a few minutes before serving. Store on the counter for the day and refrigerated for upto 3 days.

Making food for a Vegan coworker for a potluck and find it a challenge worthy to take on with no other people in the group vegan, but want them to love it just as much. Also for me no dairy, also noticed the GF option. Happy I tried this. My husband liked it, and he isn’t a spinach fan. They didn’t have the vegan cream cheese you mentioned so I had to go with another brand. it ran a little and stuck to the parchment. I will lightly spray the parchment next time when I make it for Christmas day.
Yay, happy it worked out!
Ooh! This would be great with Vegan Feta instead of cream cheese! Easy Spanakopita.
smart!
Love them
