1 packet MorningStar Veggie Pulled Pork Do not thaw or microwave
1 red bell pepper roughly chopped
1/2 red onion roughly chopped
2 cups pizza sauce divided into 2 equal parts
1 Tbsp dried oregano
1 Tbsp dried parsley
2 Pepperoncini finely chopped
3 cloves garlic optional
2 slabs puff pastry
1 cup colby cheese shredded
1 cup pepperjack cheese shredded

Instructions

Fire up the grill and preheat oven to 400 degrees
In a bowl, mix the veggie pulled "pork", red bell pepper, red onions, 1 cup pizza sauce, pepperoncini, garlic, oregano and parsley
Mix well and set aside. Make a boat shaped aluminum foil and place the veggie pulled "pork" mixture in it
Place the foil on the grill and close the top. Grill for 8-10 minutes
While the mixture is grilling, make puff pastry cups. Cut each puff pastry into 4 pieces
Shape them into the muffin holes
Place the muffin tray in the oven for about 5 minutes
Remove the muffin tray from the oven and fill it with the veggie pulled pork mixture (about 2 Tbsp per cup) when its ready
Top with the remaining pizza sauce (about 2 tsp per cup)
Top with cheese and place it back in the oven for another 8-10 minutes or until the cheese has melted
Remove and wait for it to cool to touch. Serve immediately

Notes

* The instructions call for the veggie pulled pork to be microwaved before use. However, I found it to be dry and chewy when microwaved. So, I put it on the grill right out of the freezer and that kept them moist
