Turkey Turnovers
1 box puff pastry, thawed
1½ cup leftover (cooked) turkey meat, shredded
½ cup brie, cut into thin slices
¼ cup leftover cranberry sauce
salt and pepper to taste
4 tablespoon butter, melted
Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
Cut two thawed puff pastry sheets into fourths (making 8 squares).
Place squares on a lightly oiled baking sheet and place several pieces of turkey on one side of the pastry, Top with a piece of brie, 1 tablespoon cranberry sauce and salt and pepper.
To assemble, fold one edge of the square over the other making a triangle. Crimp the bottom edge of the dough over the top edge- sealing the triangle. When all turnovers are folded, brush them with butter and sprinkle with a bit more salt and pepper.
Use a knife to make a small score on the top of each turnover, allowing air to escape while cooking.
Bake for about 15 minutes, until tops are browned.
Makes 8 turnovers.
Chef notes: Stuff these with a variety of items; leftover sweet potatoes, mashed potatoes and different cheeses, or turkey and stuffing. The possibilities are endless.
