Steps:
- In a medium skillet, heat oil over medium; add onions and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; mix in spinach, feta, lemon juice, and cayenne. Season filling with salt and pepper, and set aside. (Feta can be quite salty, so be sure to taste the filling before adding more seasoning.)
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees, with racks in upper and lower thirds. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out each portion of dough (still folded in thirds) into a 12-inch square; cut each into quarters to form a total of 8 equal squares.
- Dividing evenly, spoon filling onto center of each of the 8 squares. Lightly brush two adjoining edges of each square with some egg wash. Fold these edges over filling to form a triangle; press firmly to seal (dough should be tightly pressed around filling). With a floured fork, crimp edges.
- Transfer turnovers to two baking sheets; brush tops with remaining egg wash. Bake until golden and puffed, 35 to 40 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through.

Fold 1 corner of each square over filling to opposite corner, forming triangle. Press dough edges together tightly with fork to seal. Using sharp knife, cut 3 small slits in top of each turnover to allow steam to escape. Brush tops of turnovers with reserved egg glaze.

EASY GREEK-STYLE SPINACH AND FETA TURNOVERS
To make it easy, purchase prepared refrigerated pizza dough or use your own favorite pizza dough recipe. You can cut this complete recipe in half to make 4 turnovers. Cooking the spinach in the microwave firstly is only optional, I prefer to use cooked spinach rather than raw, cooking it first will mellow out the strong taste of the spinach, if you do not mind a strong taste then omit this step. I have made this many times using puff pastry in place of the pizza dough!
