Spinach Cheese Swirls
These Spinach Cheese Swirls can almost be a meal on their own. They are packed full of delicious ingredients for your tastebuds to have fun with.
When we bring these to a party they usually disappear fast. We used to provide sauces for dipping but found that most people like them the way they are. Well...except for our kids, they love to put ketchup on everything!
This recipe is flexible. You can use salami instead of ham or just leave the meat out all together. My sister in-law adds some chopped sun-dried tomatoes in when she makes them.
