Ingredients

  • 1/2 box puff pastry
  • 3 tbsp sundried tomato pesto
  • 1 bunch asparagus
  • 1/4 cup peas fresh or frozen
  • 10 cherry tomatoes halved
  • 4 pieces prosciutto
  • 1/2 cup gruyere cheese shredded
  • 3 tbsp fresh basil chopped

Instructions

  • Preheat your oven to 400 degrees.
  • If you don't have pre-rolled puff pastry sheets, roll out the puff pastry into a rectangle shape on a piece of parchment paper. You want it to be about 10" x 14", but its really not a big deal whatever size it turns out to be. If you have pre-rolled sheets, just unroll and move on.
  • With a sharp knife, score the pastry about 1/2 an inch around the edges. This allows the edges to rise nicely around the tart.
  • Spread the sundried tomato pesto all over it and then sprinkle with a little of the cheese. Lay the asparagus down across the tart. Then sprinkle the peas and the tomato halves over top.
  • Next break up pieces of the prosciutto and place them all around the tart. Top the tart with the rest of the gruyere cheese.
  • Slide the tart on its parchment paper onto a cooking sheet and place in the oven. Cook for about 15 mins or until the edges are nicely browned.
  • Sprinkle the basil on the tart when you take it out of the oven, cut it in to pieces, and serve right away!
