Zucchini Puff Pastry Tarts

This is a quick and easy appetizer if you use ready-made frozen puff pastry sheets. If I had any on hand, I would also sprinkle in chopped fresh basil beneath the zucchini and squash slices. I also think goat cheese would work nicely with this. I think I'll add sliced mushrooms too next time I make this.

Zucchini Puff Pastry Tarts

1-2 sheets of ready-made frozen puff pastry sheets, thawed
1 small zucchini, sliced into coins
1 small yellow summer squash, sliced into coins
handful of sun-dried tomatoes, cut into thin strips
1/2 cup shredded cheese (I've used mozzarella or sharp cheddar)

  1. Pre-heat oven to 400F.
  2. Cut each sheet in half.
  3. Place puff pastry onto baking sheets, prick several times with a fork, and bake about 10 minutes until they turn a light golden color.
  4. Pull the pre-baked sheets from the oven and sprinkle with shredded cheese and sun-dried tomato strips. Arrange zucchini slices on top, alternating colors. Sprinkle with a little more shredded cheese.
  5. Bake for another 10-15 minutes until cheese melts and zucchini is tender.
  6. Let cool on a wire rack if not serving immediately.
