Shrimp & cheese strudel

Recipe from Kay Marley of Texas

1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
1 1/2 cup shredded swiss cheese
1/4 cup shredded parmesan cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup thinly sliced green onion
4 ounces cooked tiny shrimp, chopped (or one can shrimp, drained and rinsed)
1 egg, beaten
1/2 tsp. cajun spice blend
1/4 tsp. garlic powder

Preheat oven to 400º. On a lightly floured surface, roll out thawed sheet of puff pastry to an 18 x 10-inch rectangle. In a medium bowl, stir together the cheese, sour cream, green onion, shrimp and half of the beaten egg (about two tablespoons). Spread the mixture lengthwise down half of the rectangle, leaving a half-inch border on edge. Using a pastry brush, brush the edges of the pastry with some of the beaten egg. Carefully fold the dough over the filling and seal the edges using the tines of a fork to crimp the dough shut. Transfer the strudel to an extra large baking sheet. Brush the strudel with beaten egg to help it become a glossy golden brown during baking.

Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden. Remove from oven. Cool for at least 20 minutes before slicing.

Tip: Use a pizza cutter to slice inch wide slices across strudel. Cut those slices in half lengthwise to form small rectangles.

    Making pickles doesn't mean having to pull out the dill and canning gear to spend a day over a hot stove. With a little notice ahead, I use salt and vinegar to quickly pickle vegetables from my garden

    Before the microwave, turkey bacon, pre-sliced loaf bread and store-bought mayo, the wholesome BLT had more character. A staple for a simple and refreshing meal on a hot summer's day, my twist on this

    In Italian, the word "gelato" means "frozen" more than it means "ice cream." So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse

So, for as much as we have heard that gelato is the Italian equivalent of ice cream, this "gelato" is really a frozen mousse of a dessert. Quick and easy, with no ice cream maker needed, this dessert may be served as a chilled mousse or frozen completely as a "gelato."
