    1. Unroll the puff pastry sheet on a lightly floured surface. Spread the sausage over the puff pastry sheet, leaving a 1-inch border on all sides. Sprinkle the sausage with the scallions and cheese. Roll up the pastry sheet with sausage mixture,jelly-roll fashion, starting at 1 long side of rectangle.  

    2. Wrap the sausage and pastry roll in plastic wrap, and freeze 2 hours. (The roll may be frozen for up to 1 month. Thaw until just able to slice with a serrated knife before proceeding with the recipe.)  

    3. Preheat the oven to 400°F. Using a serrated knife, slice the roll into about 20 (1⁄2-inch-thick) slices. Place slices on a greased baking sheet.  

    4. Bake in the preheated oven until the pastry is golden and the sausage is cooked through, 40 to 45 minutes.
