    Pesto Chicken Puff Pasties, These are tasty and look very effective with a salad , 6 sundried tomatoes – soaked in hot water 20 minutes and chopped up with the chicken Bake at 400 degrees for 20 minutes to brown the pastry , Made this last night – had everything on hand and didn’t have to go out Plus we are eating from the freezer Made a few changes – I soaked sundried tomatoes to soften and plump instead of the fresh tomatoes – it is what I had on hand The other change I made was to bake it at a higher temperature – 400 degrees – the pastry was not browning to my liking To answer my question below, I did not make them smaller I just used a pizza cutter to cut smaller portions My husband and I enjoyed it and will be experimenting with other fillings
