Ingredients:

Serving

1/2 lb sausage (italian, spicy
9 oz spinach, chopped and thawed then squeezed to drain (fresh would be nice)
1 cup cottage cheese , drained if moist
1/2 cup parmesan cheese, grated
1 tsp garlic, minced
bread dough ( try buttery soft crescent rolls
provolone cheese
mozzarella cheese

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375°F
Cook sausage in a skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently. Then drain.
In large bowl, mix spinach, cottage cheese, Parmesan cheese, garlic and cooked sausage.
Press dough into 13x8-inch rectangle, seal seams, if any. I like to do this on top of silpat so it is easy to put on the baking pan.
Spoon sausage mixture in 4-inch-wide strip lengthwise down center of rectangle.
Top with slices of both cheeses.
With scissors or sharp knife, make cuts 1 inch apart on long sides of dough rectangle to within 1/2 inch of sausage mixture. Fold strips of dough up over sausage mixture to meet in center; pinch to seal.
Bake 18 to 24 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from cookie sheet; cut into crosswise slices.
Serve warm.
