1. Preheat Oven: 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Cook Spinach Filling:
   • Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat.
   • Add onion, sauté until soft (about 3 min).

3. Mix the Cheese:
   • In a bowl, combine cooled spinach mixture with feta and mozzarella.
4. Assemble Pastries:
   • Roll out puff pastry and cut into squares (about 4×4 inches).
   • Place a spoonful of filling in the center, fold into triangles or rectangles, and seal edges with a fork.
5. Brush & Bake:
   • Brush tops with beaten egg, sprinkle sesame seeds if using.
   • Bake 20-25 minutes or until golden brown and puffed.

💡 Tips & Variations

• Add a Mediterranean Twist: Toss in chopped sun-dried tomatoes, olives, or pine nuts for extra flavor.
• Vegan Option: Use vegan puff pastry and swap feta for plant-based cheese or tofu crumbles.
• Make-Ahead Friendly: Assemble and freeze unbaked pastries, then bake straight from the freezer (add 5 extra minutes to baking time).
