Spinach Pinwheels

Found this on Pintrest and I love spinach so I thought it'd be a good one to try out! 
The link on Pintrest leads to a site called Saving Money, Living Life, but the original recipe is from Allrecipes.

Spinach Pinwheels
Ingredients:
2 (8 ounce) packages refrigerated crescent rolls
*1 (7 ounce) package garlic herb cheese spread (or any other flavor you prefer!)
*1 (10 ounce) package frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
2. Split crescent dough in half along center perforation. Flatten one rectangle, sealing perforations. Spread with 1/4 of the cheese spread and sprinkle with spinach.
3. Starting with long side, roll dough up, rolling back and forth several times to seal edges. Cut into 3/4 inch slices (about 15 slices per roll). Arrange the slices one inch apart on ungreased cookie sheet. Continue making the crescent roll ups until all of the ingredients are used.
4. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, until lightly browned. Serve immediately or keep warm on a warming tray.

*** Using one package of crescent rolls I did the original recipe and for the second package I used Regular Cream Cheese, Half a Tomato Finely Chopped and some Dried Basil. These can be made with pretty much any flavour you like!

I served this to my family and they all liked them, it was about 50/50 on whether the spinach or tomato basil was better.
