Ingredients
Puff Pastry:
- 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
Scrambled Eggs:
- 4 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons milk

For Assembly:
- 1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Prepare Eggs: Whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper. Scramble the eggs until just set but still slightly soft. Set aside to cool.
- Prepare Pastry: Roll out the puff pastry, cut into sections, and layer with cream cheese, scrambled eggs, bacon (or sausage), and cheddar. Fold and seal the edges to create bars.

Notes
- You can make these bars ahead and reheat them.
- For a vegetarian option, replace bacon with sautéed veggies like spinach, mushrooms, or peppers.
- Enjoy with hot sauce or salsa for added flavor.
