A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

1-2 hrs
ingredients
1 package (17.3 ounce size) puff pastry sheets
1 egg
1 tablespoon water
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts halves
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 package (about 10 ounce size) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and well drained
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
4 teaspoons Dijon mustard
directions
Thaw the pastry sheets at room temperature for 40 minutes or until they're easy to handle.
Heat the oven to 400 degrees F. Stir the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork.
Pound the chicken to 1/4-inch thickness. Cut each chicken breast in half. Coat the chicken with the flour.
Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until it's well browned on both sides. Remove the chicken to a plate. Cover the plate and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
Stir the spinach and nutmeg in the skillet. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook for 5 minutes or until the mixture is hot, stirring often.
Unfold 1 pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry sheet into a 14-inch square. Cut the pastry sheet into 7-inch squares.
Repeat with the remaining pastry sheet. Brush the edges of the pastry squares with the egg mixture.
Place 1 chicken piece in the center of each of 4 pastry squares. Spread each with 1 teaspoon mustard and top with about 1/4 cup spinach mixture. Top each with another pastry square.
Press the edges to seal. Brush the pastries with the egg mixture. Place the pastries on a baking sheet. Bake for 25 minutes or until the pastries are golden.
