Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup of fresh spinach, ½ cup of crumbled feta cheese, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
  2. Lay your fresh salmon fillet on a cutting board, skin-side down. Slice horizontally to create an even piece for rolling. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Spread the spinach and feta filling across the salmon fillet, roll tightly into a pinwheel shape, and secure with toothpicks or twine.
  4. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange pinwheels in a greased dish, seam-side down, brush tops with olive oil, and bake for 15-18 minutes until cooked through.
  5. Remove toothpicks or twine, arrange on a platter, and garnish with fresh dill or a squeeze of lemon juice before serving warm.
