Equipment

Ingredients

1 sheet store-bought puff pastry thawed
1 lb mild italian sausage
1/3 cup pesto
16 oz jar roasted peppers drained and chopped
1/4 cup parmesan cheese grated

Instructions

Start by thawing the puff pastry. You can do this by letting it sit at room temperature for 30 minutes or in the fridge for 1 hour.
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F.
In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the sausage, making sure to breaking it up into little pieces as you go.
Once browned, add in the pesto, chopped and drained roasted peppers and grated parmesan. Mix to combine.
Once the puff pastry is thawed, unroll it and cut into 12 equal squares.
Spray your muffin tin with non-stick spray. Place a piece of puff pastry into each cavity, then add the sausage filling into the centers.
Bake for 25-30 minutes. The pastry will be puffed and golden on the edges and your kitchen will smell amazing! Let them cool for 5 minutes before removing them from the pan and serving.
