Connie’s G/F Puff Pastry filled with Chicken, 5 Cheeses and MORE!

Have you avoided gluten free products over the years for fear the taste would be too disappointing? I’ve done this too many times to count! Gluten free puff pastry is just one example.

GREAT NEWS! Thank goodness gluten free products have improved greatly over the years! I can’t wait for you to watch this week’s video, “Connie’s G/F Puff Pastry with Chicken, Five Cheeses & MORE!” You’ll be out shopping for G/F puff pastry today!

I mention in the video that gluten free puff pastry can be a bit temperamental. But, with a few tricks you’ll learn in the video, this recipe will become a family fave!

IF you have leftovers, reheat at 325 until heated through, approximately 8-10 minutes. The crust will be delicious. I don’t recommend reheating in the microwave; the puff pastry won’t stay crisp.

I can’t wait to hear what you think of this scrumptious dish.

Love y’all,
