I had some leftover pesto, sun-dried tomatoes and feta cheese that I wanted to use up and thought her concept would be perfect! My family loved them. My only complaint was I should have made more! Yum! Thanks for the great idea, Linda! :)

2ouncesFeta cheesecrumbled
1eggbeaten
Instructions
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Line two baking sheets with parchment paper and set aside.
Carefully unroll the puff pastry. Spread pesto sauce over half of the dough - width-wise (shorter direction). Top with tomatoes and Feta. Flip the plain part of the dough over the part with all the ingredients. Slightly press down with your hands to seal.
Using a pizza cutter or knife, cut the dough into 1-inch strips. Carefully twist the ends and place on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining strips.
Brush the tops with the beaten eggs.
Bake for 15-17 minutes or until the straws are golden brown and crispy.
Notes
Once you've got this technique down you can add any sort of "filling" to your twists!
