This puff pastry pizza wheels recipe is a family favorite!

While parties are a lot of fun, planning and organizing them when there are so many other things going on can be stressful. One way I have found that allows me to throw a party with minimal work is to host an open house and serve appetizers. This means I don’t have to worry about a late guest throwing off the dinner time or worry about limiting who I invite because I only have seating for 14 people.

The time frames where I like to schedule open houses are in the afternoon between 2:00 and 4:00 and after 7:30 pm. The first is easy because it is between meals, so guests realize that you will only be serving finger foods. Scheduling a party in the evenings is a little trickier because some guests may expect a meal. I go out of my way to let them know that I will be serving hors d’ oeurves. However, since some guests will have to come directly from work, I try to serve some heartier appetizers and have plenty on hand for those who will be making a meal of them.

No matter when I throw my party, I put out Puff Pastry Wheels. My guests love them because they are so delicious and I love them because they are so easy to make. They have the wow effect without the work.

You just unfold a Puff Pastry sheet, top it with your favorite ingredients, roll, slice, and bake. It doesn’t get much easier than that.

The possible flavor combinations for a Puff Pastry Wheel are as endless as your imagination. I have also discovered that Pizza Wheels are hugely popular with all my guests, young and old alike.
