I made a blueberry sour cream pound cake a puff pastry filled with eggs, sasuage, potatoes and cream cheese. I made two of each and froze them for my girl's get together the next weekend (which I posted about before this, sorry!)
This was the star! I made a sugar cookie as large as a pizza. I covered it with cream cheese and sugar combined and then placed the fruit on. It was great! I will definately make this again!

Breakfast Strudel
from "Don't Panic: Dinner's in the Freezer" by Susie Martinez, Vanda Howell, & Bonnie Garcia
4 frozen puff pastry sheets
11 eggs
2 T. fresh chives or green onions, chopped (optional)
2 T. unsalted butter
1 C frozen hash brown potatoes (I used fresh potatoes)
1 C red and/or green bell peppers, diced (optional)
1 C sasuage, browned (turkey, pork or beef)
1 t. salt
1 t. pepper
4 oz. cream cheese, softened
1 T. water
Yield: 4 strudels
Thaw pastry sheets to room temperature, about 30 minutes. In a large mixing bowl, wish eggs and chives (or green onions) together. Set aside. In a large skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add potatoes and peppers; saute 5 minutes. Add sasuage and blend. Add egg mixture to the skillet and scramble just until set. Season with salt and pepper. Take egg mixture off burner and stir in cream cheese. Cool.
Unfold each pastry sheet onto a piece of waxed or parchment paper that has been lightly dusted with flour. Trim the pastry on the left and right corners in a downward angle. Make up to 10 slits at a downward angle on the left and right sheets. Spread the egg filling down the center, dividing the mixture between each pastry sheet. Braid the pastry sheet. Mix remaining egg and water together. Brush each strudel with egg mixture. Wrap each strudel in a layer of plastic wrap, then a layer of foil, and freeze.
On serving day, thaw strudel. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Place strudel on a greased baking sheet and bake for 20 - 30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool 5 minutes before serving.
