Spinach-Cheese Swirls

I'm not going to type this recipe out because it's already in cyber space, right here, but I did want to point them out to you because they are a delicious way to use up that remaining sheet of the puff pastry that you bought for the chocolate croissants. And since I didn't buy the right kind of puff pastry (i.e. all butter) the spinach cheese swirls actually tasted better than the chocolate croissants. I didn't realize anything could taste better than chocolate! ;o)

Puff Pastry Pudding Cup

I made this for dessert on Valentine's Day. It's a very simple and inexpensive dessert. It reminded me of a custard pie we had on our honeymoon in Dublin.

Ingredients
puff pastry shells
french vanilla instant pudding
fresh fruit-I used strawberries, blackberries and kiwi

Directions
  1. Bake puff pastry shells according to the package; let them cool.
  2. Prepare instant pudding according to the package.
  3. Pipe the pudding in to each shell; I used a zip lock bag for this.
  4. Cut up the fruit, and place on the pudding and on the plate.

*Each package of puff pastry shells contain 6 shells, but you can bake as many as you need. One package of pudding will fill all 6 shells.
