Sun Dried Tomato Basil Swirls

I just love Pinterest! I have been finding a lot of inspiration there lately! This simple appetizer was on my must make soon list! These were very tasty.  I also really liked that I can make them ahead and keep them in the fridge until I am ready to bake them!

INGREDIENTS
1 Package of puff pastry (you will only use one sheet for this recipe)
2 cups freshly grated Parmesan Cheese
1 cup Sun dried tomatoes, drained and chopped
Fresh basil, torn
Red chili flakes to taste
1 egg, beaten for glazing

DIRECTIONS
Preheat oven to 400 degree’s (when ready to bake).  Roll out the pastry into a thin rectangle. Spread the chopped sun dried tomatoes evenly over the pastry leaving a gap around the edges. Scatter the cheese over the top, followed by the basil and the red chili flakes.  Season with salt and pepper. Brush one of the long ends with a little bit of the beaten egg. Now from the opposite side that you brushed with the egg, roll the pastry up like a long sausage until completely rolled. Place on a baking sheet and place the baking sheet in the fridge for about an hour. This will make it much easier to slice. After an hour or so remove from the fridge, brush the roll with the beaten egg.  With a sharp knife cut into slices about 1 inch thick, place them on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes watching close to not burn.

Enjoy!
