Brie And Pesto Galette
A really easy and delicious meal, especially if you go to the effort of making your own puff pastry. DONT wait...do it today.
Quick midweek dinner, great brunch option ( Mother's Day, Father's Day and so on) or just nice lunch with a fresh salad and crusty bread. As usual, I bake, I photograph, I blog! From my home to yours, feel free to adapt this with any toppings of choice, throw in a different pesto, use walnuts, almonds, or seeds instead of pine nuts...differing cheeses, replace potato with pumpkin or kumara; the list goes on. Let this be conduit to many, many tarts slash galettes, in a good way! Totally delish. That pastry though!
