   1      c             Swiss cheese -- shredded
     1/2  c             Onion -- chopped
     1/2  c             Lowfat cottage cheese
     1/4  c             Fine dry breadcrumbs

   1      ts            Water

Preheat oven to 400°F. Line cookie sheets with foil; spray foil with
nonstick cooking spray. Thaw pastry sheets at room temperature
20 minutes before unfolding. Combine spinach, Swiss cheese, onion,
cottage cheese, bread crumbs, 2 eggs, salt, and nutmeg. On lightly
floured surface, unfold each pastry sheet and roll into a 12" square.
Place 1 ts spinach mixture in center of each square. Beat together
remaining egg with water. Brush 2 edges of each square with egg
mixture. Fold squares in half to form triangles. Press edges together
with a fork. Place filled triangles on foil-lined cookie sheets;
brush each with egg mixture. Spinach Bites can be frozen at this
point. Bake until golden brown and puffed, 12 to 14 minutes.
