Notes
You have a lot of options for cheese in this recipe! Gruyere cheese, goat cheese, shredded Italian cheese blend or shredded aged parmesan are wonderful options! Shredded Italian cheese is my go-to because it gives you a variety of flavors.
If you're unable to find frozen puff pastry , you can also use canned crescent rolls! They will be a bit puffier, but still delicious!
