If you are anything like me, I am always brainstorming what to serve over the holidays. I especially like things that are easy to make, require minimum preparation and taste delicious. I have made spinach roll-ups overs the years using puff pastry, this time I am making breakfast Ham, Egg and Cheese Roll-Ups. I happened to have a few slices of honey ham in our refrigerator so this time I am using ham. You can add cooked bacon if you prefer or a combination of vegetables. If you prefer vegetables like peppers and onions, saute first and them add to the filling. You can’t go wrong with this recipe.
Ham, Egg and Cheese Roll-ups
Ingredients
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 tablespoon minced Italian parsley
- 1/2 cup minced ham
- 1 recipe fluffy scrambled eggs
- egg wash, 1 egg mixed with 1 tablespoon water
- Fluffy Scrambled Eggs
- 5 eggs
- 1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
- 2 tablespoons milk
- 1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter
- freshly ground black pepper
Instructions
-
Thaw puff pastry as directed on package. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. When the pastry has thawed, cover the pastry with the cheese, ham and parsley. Cook the eggs as directed, let cool for 4 minutes. Then layer the eggs on top of the cheese and ham. Salt and pepper, if desired. You will roll from the short side of the pastry. Brush the ends of the pastry with egg wash to seal the roll. Now, carefully roll the mixture, if some of the filling falls out, you can tuck the filling back in When you get to the end rolling, pinch the edges to seal. Cut the roll into 8 slices. Place the slices on a parchment lined baking sheet. Brush each roll-up with the egg wash. Bake rolls for 25 - 30 minutes. Serve warm. -----
