Meat Filled Puff Pastry Bundles

Step 1: In a bowl combine the ground beef and sausage meat with next 6 ingredients.

Step 2: Shape the beef mixture firmly into 12 (2-inch) patties.

Step 3: Cook the patties in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat to medium doneness, turning them over once halfway through cooking (do not cook the patties until well done they will cook more in the oven).

Step 4: Remove the patties from the skillet and allow cool to room temperature.

Step 5: Thaw the pastry sheets at room temperature for 40 minutes or until they’re easy to handle.

Step 6: Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Step 7: Lightly grease or line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

Step 8: Unfold one pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Roll the pastry sheet into a 10-inch square. Cut the pastry sheet into 6 (about 3 x 5-inch) rectangles, then repeat with the remaining pastry sheet.

Step 9: Place one beef patty into the center of each pastry rectangle and top each with one cheese slice. Fold the corners of the pastries up over the filling and twist to seal.

Step 10: Place the pastries on a baking sheet (at this point you may cover lightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for up to 24 hours).

Step 11: Bake for 20 minutes or until the pastries are golden.
