Ingredients

1 tablespoon light olive oil
1 10 ounce package frozen chopped spinach
1/3 cup crumbled feta cheese
4 medium scallions or spring onions
1/4 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1 tablespoon parsley
1/2 ounce dill
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 large egg
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

Directions

Pre-heat oven to 350 F.
Grease an 8-inch-square baking dish with half the olive oil; set aside.
In a bowl, mix spinach, feta, ricotta, scallions, parsley, dill and egg until well combined.
Spread a quarter of the spinach mixture down the center of each turkey cutlet, leaving a border on all sides. Roll up and place seam-side down in prepared baking dish. Brush turkey rolls with remaining 1 1/2 teaspoon olive oil. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, garlic powder and thyme.
Bake about 30 minutes, until turkey is just cooked through and stuffing is heated.
