Ingredients:

for the salmon
4 salmon fillets (150 gr each)
1 tbsp. olive oil
1 tsp. Cajun seasoning or your preffered seasoning (or you can use only salt and pepper)

for the spinach stuffing
80 gr cream cheese
½ cup mozzarella cheese
½ cup feta cheese crumbles
80 gr fresh baby spinach

Instructions:

Make the spinach stuffing. Place the cream cheese, feta, and mozzarella into a medium mixing bowl. Roughly chop the baby spinach and add it to the cheese. Massage the spinach and cheese with your hands, until well combined (it should look like thick paste).

Using a sharp knife, cut a pocket in the center of each salmon fillet. Generously season the salmon fillets with the seasoning and brush them with olive oil on both sides.

Divide the spinach stuffing into four equal parts and spoon it into the salmon pockets.

Bake the stuffed fillets in a preheated oven at 200ºC for 15-20 minutes, depending on how large your fillets are.
