LEFTOVER TURKEY DINNER TURNOVERS

Breads and Pastries|Chicken|Leftovers

Ingredients

1, 17.25-ounce package frozen puff pastry, thawed (2 sheets)

2 cups leftover turkey, cut into small bite size pieces

2 cups leftover stuffing

½ cup cranberry sauce

2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

2 eggs, beaten

Instructions

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Dust a clean countertop lightly with flour and, using a floured rolling pin, roll each sheet of puff pastry into a 14” x 14” square. Then, using a sharp knife, cut each sheet into 4 equal squares.

Pile about ¼ cup each of the turkey and stuffing in the center of each square. Top with about 1 tablespoon of cranberry sauce and ¼ cup of the shredded cheese.

Brush the edges of each pastry square with the egg. Fold the dough over the filling, corner to corner, creating large triangles. You will need to lightly stretch the dough to get it completely over the filling. Seal the edges together pressing with the tines of a fork. Cut 3 small holes in the top of each turnover to let steam escape.

Place the turnovers on parchment lined baking sheets and brush the tops with the egg wash.

Bake for 20-25 minutes until puffed and golden brown. Serve hot with peas or salad on the side.
