It may look like a sad little package shoved in the back of your freezer, but frozen spinach actually has a lot of culinary uses (and some may surprise you).

ingredients
1 package (8 ounce size) refrigerated crescent rolls
1/2 cup prepared mincemeat
1/2 cup chopped pecans
1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar (optional)
1/8 teaspoon vanilla (optional)
1 teaspoon milk, more as needed (optional)
directions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Lightly grease cookie sheets; set aside.
Unroll crescent rolls and separate into triangles. Cut each triangle lengthwise into thirds.
In a small mixing bowl, combine mincemeat and pecans. Spoon about 1 teaspoon of the mixture onto each dough triangle, spreading to cover surface of dough. Fold in corners, overlapping slightly in the center.
Place 1 inch apart on prepared cookie sheets. Bake in preheated oven for 12 minutes or until golden brown.
Transfer to a wire rack and let cool.
For icing, if desired, in a small mixing bowl, stir together the powdered sugar, vanilla, and enough milk to make a mixture of drizzling consistency.
Drizzle over cooled cookies.

I actually rolled out the cresent dough, cut it into 8 squares, then cut each in half for triangles. More managable.
This recipe sounds really good but needs a better description of how to cut the triangles or a photo. Long ways sounds like you will have one long strip (down the long side to the point) and two short unequal ones as you cut the rest. It's hard to imagine how these will come out looking as a pastry.
