Cheesy Baked Pastry Rolls Recipe

Cheesy Baked Pastry Rolls Recipe

Ingredients:

• 1 package of puff pastry sheets (2 sheets), thawed
• 2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or a mix)
• 1 cup cooked and shredded chicken (optional)
• 1/2 cup chopped spinach or other greens
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onions
• 1/4 cup finely chopped bell peppers
• 1 egg, beaten
• Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
   • Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Prepare Filling:
   • In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded cheese, cooked chicken (if using), chopped spinach, onions, and bell peppers. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Prepare Puff Pastry:
   • Roll out the puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.
4. Assemble the Pastry Rolls:
   • Place a generous amount of the cheese and vegetable mixture in the center of each pastry square.
   • Fold each square over to form a rectangle or triangle, sealing the edges by pressing them with a fork.
   • Place the filled pastries on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Egg Wash:
   • Brush the top of each pastry with the beaten egg. This will give them a nice golden color when baked.
6. Bake:
   • Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastries are golden brown and puffed up.
7. Serve:
   • Allow the pastries to cool slightly before serving. They can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.

Enjoy your cheesy baked pastry rolls!
