Suggested Recipes
-
1 pkg (397 g) frozen puff pastry, thawed
1/2 cup (125 mL) grated asiago cheese
1/4 cup (50 mL) finely chopped roasted red pepper
1/4 cup (50 mL) finely chopped pitted black olives
1 tbsp (15 mL) chopped fresh parsley
1/2 tsp (2 mL) dried oregano
1/4 tsp (1 mL) each salt and pepper
2 tbsp (25 mL) dijon mustard
Preparation:
On lightly floured surface, roll out half of the pastry to 12-inch (30 cm) square.
In bowl, combine cheese, red pepper, olives, parsley, oregano, salt and pepper.
Spread half of the mustard over pastry. Leaving 1/2-inch (1 cm) border, sprinkle evenly with half of the cheese mixture. Roll up jelly roll-style; using serrated knife, cut into 1/2-inch (1 cm) thick slices. Repeat with remaining pastry, mustard and cheese mixture. (Make-ahead: Freeze on baking sheet until firm. Layer between waxed paper in airtight container and freeze for up to 2 weeks. Bake from frozen.)
Bake on baking sheet in 425°F (220°C) oven until golden, about 15 minutes.
