Categories: Italian Sausage

Ingredients

• 1 pound of breakfast sausage
• Extra Virgin Olive Oil (EVOO)
• 1 (8 oz) package of cream cheese, softened
• 2 cups of shredded smoked Gouda cheese
• 3 (12-count each) boxes of mini puff pastry shells (found in the freezer department)

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

2. Line a baking sheet with foil and spray with Pam for easy clean up.  Set aside.

3. In a large skillet over medium-high, brown up your sausage in a drizzle of EVOO until it’s browned and crumbly.

4. Next, reduce heat to medium-low and stir in your cream cheese and shredded Gouda.   Stir everything together until the cheese is melted.  Add in just a pinch of salt and pepper.   Then take each one of your mini puff pastry shells and add about a tablespoon of filling to each one.  Place each shell on your prepared baking sheet.  Once all of your shells are filled, pop your baking sheet in the oven and bake about 10 minutes.

5. Remove from oven and serve immediately.
