PUFF PASTRY BOATS with LENTILS and BACON, a tasty New Year’s recipe to make quickly without sausage, perfect for midnight.
As tradition goes, lentils are eaten on New Year’s as a symbol of wealth or as a wish for a prosperous year, so I prepared simple puff pastry boats with lentils, bacon, and provolone.
The puff pastry boats with lentils and bacon recipe is very simple: you first cook the lentils as you prefer; I cooked them with tomato sauce, make the boats, and fill them.
A different idea from the usual puff pastry baskets, I love them and of course, if you prefer, you can add sausage pieces instead of sausage.
Follow me in the kitchen today there are puff pastry boats with lentils and bacon!
