For an extra touch of richness, brush the puff pastry with an egg wash (1 egg beaten with 1 tablespoon of water) before baking. If you don't have pesto on hand, you can substitute it with a thin layer of cream cheese or a homemade herb butter. Ensure the puff pastry is properly thawed but still cold to prevent it from becoming sticky and difficult to work with. Serve with a side of roasted vegetables or a fresh salad for a complete and balanced meal.
