These are such a tasty & quick lunch or snack option, that contains 4 different types of greens 🌱
These pinwheels contain zucchini, spinach, basil & broccoli – which usually aren’t a favourite among toddlers, but when paired with vegan cheese in puff pastry become a fun treat for little ones (whilst also getting the veggies in for them!).
Cheesy Green Pinwheels
Ingredients
- 1 sheet puff pastry
- 1/2 medium zucchini/courgette grated (squeeze the liquid out)
- 1 small handful of spinach chopped
- 1 small handful of basil leaves chopped (sub with 1 tsp of dried basil if you don’t have any fresh)
- 4 broccoli florets (steamed and finely chopped)
- 1/2 cup (40g) grated vegan cheese
- 1 tsp soy milk (to brush the pastry)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200c
- Combine all the veggies in a bowl
- Place the veggie mix across the pastry, leaving around 1 inch of space from the sides and end (the veggies move as you roll and will spill out otherwise) then top the veggies with the cheese.
- Gently press and roll into a log and then slice into approx 2cm slices
- Gently place on a sheet of baking paper/tray, brush the sides of the pastry with the soy milk and bake for 25-30mins till golden.

My broccoli hating 14 month old loves these reheated in the microwave! (Doesn’t seem to be a fan on flaky pastry). I love them too.
Oh good tip, the soft pastry must be a nicer texture for them.
