This is a super quick’n easy recipe. In a medium bowl mix ricotta cheese with finely chopped spinach, red bell pepper, artichoke hearts, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Then roll dough into a thin rectangular sheet. Evenly spread the prepared spinach mixture. Roll up the dough sheet to form swirls of ricotta cheese and spinach mixture. Slice the roll into roughly 1/2″ slices to form pinwheels. Bake these pinwheels until well done in a preheated oven.
You can arrange these artichoke spinach pinwheels into a Christmas tree shape before baking. And you would have a perfect pull-apart appetizer for the Christmas party!
