- 2 sheets prepared puff pastry
- 2 cans of good tuna in olive oil
- 1 cup pitted Spanish olives finely chopped
- 4 hard boiled eggs finely chopped
- 1 large onion caramelized
- 1/4 cup of mayonnaise

To prepare puff pastry
Unroll your puff pastry and cut into large rounds. Using the smaller round cutter, gently press your pastry round to score a circle inside the larger circle. Leave a border of at least a 1/4 in from the edge to the score. This scoring will allow the outer edge to puff and rise while your filling holds the inner circle down a bit creating a puff cup. Egg wash the edges of your puff pastry. Set your puffs aside.
