📝 Preparation Steps
1
Heat the olive oil in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the sausage and cook, crumbling it into small pieces with a wooden spoon, until no longer pink, about ⏱️ 4 minutes. Add the oregano and onion and cook until the onion is softened, about ⏱️ 6 minutes.
small onion, finely chopped1/2
2
Make a space in the center of the skillet and add the tomato paste. Cook for a minute until darkened, then stir it into the sausage mixture. Add 1⁄4 cup water and bring to a simmer; cook until the mixture thickens, about ⏱️ 2 minutes. Scrape into a medium bowl and let cool, about ⏱️ 15 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 375 ̊. Line 2 baking sheets with parchment paper. Stir the parmesan into the cooled sausage mixture. Season with salt, if necessary.
4
Unroll the crescent roll dough on a floured surface and separate into 4 rectangles (each made of 2 crescent dough pieces). Press the seams together to create 4 solid rectangles. Roll or press each rectangle until about 6 by 8 inches. 5
5
Layer a quarter of the spinach on one of the dough rectangles, leaving a 1⁄2-inch border on the two long sides but extending the spinach to both short sides. Sprinkle with a quarter of the parsley. Spread a quarter of the sausage mixture over the top, then sprinkle with a quarter of the mozzarella. Press down on the cheese to compress the filling and adhere it to the dough. Roll the dough tightly from a long side and pinch to seal the seam. With a sharp knife, cut into 6 rounds. Place the rounds cut-side up on one of the prepared baking sheets. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 24 pinwheels.
6
Bake, switching the baking sheets halfway through, until the dough is puffed and browned, 12 to ⏱️ 14 minutes. Serve warm.
