# Recipe Steps:
01 - Preheat the oven to 400°F. Line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
02 - In a mixing bowl, blend cream cheese, Gruyère, chives, parsley, garlic, diced bell pepper, diced zucchini, salt, and black pepper until thoroughly combined.
03 - Roll out puff pastry sheets on a lightly floured surface. Cut each sheet into 6 equal rectangles, yielding 12 pieces in total.
04 - Place a heaping tablespoon of filling along the long edge of each rectangle. Roll up tightly, sealing the seams by pinching.

07 - Bake for 25 minutes or until rolls are puffed and golden brown.
08 - Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes before presenting for sharing.
