Turkey and Stuffing Turnovers – A creative way to serve turkey and stuffing that the whole family will love!
Turkey and Stuffing Turnovers are an easy to make and delicious way to use turkey or chicken that you may have leftover and turn it into something different for dinner.
We started making a turkey breast every couple of months or so and having a turkey dinner one night then using the rest for a pot pie, these tuenovers, turkey ala king ect. It’s great having cooked turkey breast on hand. Just defrost it in the fridge overnight and you can make a quick dinner in no time.
With these Turkey and Stuffing Turnovers you can add turkey, stuffing and some cranberry sauce. And I love dipping in cranberry sauce too. And of course dipping in gravy is delicious also. Sometimes I like an easy dinner that you can just pick up with your hands. We like to serve these turnovers with a nice bowl of hot soup.
You can serve these as an appetizer on game day also. You can either make them smaller or what I do is cut them in half ( it’s easier that way). You can make them ahead of time and just bake them when your guests arrive.
