Ingredients

• 1 can (5 ounces, drained) Canned tuna
• 4 tablespoons Cream cheese
• 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
• 2 stalks (finely chopped) Green onions
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoon Paprika
• 1 package (thawed according to package instructions) Puff pastry sheets
• 1 (beaten for egg wash) Egg

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the drained canned tuna, cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, finely chopped green onions, salt, black pepper, and paprika. Mix until fully combined and creamy.

Step 3

Roll out the thawed puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut the sheets into approximately 4x4-inch squares.

Step 4

Place about 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of the tuna and cheese mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.

Step 5

Carefully fold the puff pastry squares into triangles by bringing one corner to the opposite corner. Press the edges firmly together using your fingers or a fork to seal.

Step 6

Place the sealed tuna flips onto the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.

Step 7

Brush the tops of each tuna flip with beaten egg using a pastry brush. This will give them a golden, glossy finish.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until the puff pastry is golden brown and fully puffed.

Step 9

Remove from the oven and let the tuna cheese flips cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm as a snack, appetizer, or light meal. Enjoy!
