I’m not gonna lie – these little rectangles of puff pastry, covered in a flavorful cream cheese spread, topped with loads of raw veggies was pretty darn tasty. As in, I think I devoured 3 of them in a matter of minutes. Put raw broccoli in front of me and I’ll turn away. Dice it up real small and serve it to me like this and you’ll see me turn into an instant pig. I went a little bit overboard with the photos with this post but you’ll get to see what I did step by step.

The spread that holds it all together is a mixture of softened cream cheese, mayo, fresh garlic that packs a punch, and fresh herbs. Fresh herbs always make everything better. I’m a huge fan.

Then you dice up a bunch of raw veggies. Here’s a little glimpse into everything I had in my refrigerator that needed to be used up. That’s actually how this recipe blossomed – I was staring at so many vegetables that needed to be used up so I just got a little crazy with the knife. Wet veggies like tomatoes don’t work well, but I love to use broccoli, peppers, mushrooms, carrots, and green onions.

The next thing you do is unroll a puff pastry sheet, cut it into rectangles, and bake it in the oven. Did you know puff pastry can puff up to 8 times its original thickness? As soon as I took mine out of the oven, I smashed it down with another cookie sheet. That was fun.

If you’re wondering what the red things are – they are carrots. I buy the multi color packs at Trader Joe’s simply because they make me happy. I really like how they add pizzazz.

I love all this food. So much so that constant cooking and talking about food was no longer good enough. I started my blog to share my unconditional love of food with all the other foodies out there. Because people who love to eat are always the best people.
