Meat Turnovers - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 lb. ground round beef
1/2 c. chopped onion
1 tsp. minced garlic
3/4 c. tomato juice
1/2 c. green pepper
1/2 c. chopped fresh tomato
1 tsp. basil
salt and pepper
1 (8 oz.) pkg. crescent rolls

Preparation

Brown beef, onion and garlic over medium-high heat.
When meat is brown and onion is soft, drain and discard fat from skillet. Add remaining ingredients (except rolls) to skillet.
Simmer 7 to 10 minutes or until liquid has evaporated.
Remove from heat. Heat oven to 375\u00b0.
Unroll crescent rolls into 4 rectangular sections.
Pinch together the center diagonal perforations of each rectangle.
Roll out rectangles (between sheets of waxed paper) until they are very thin, about 6 x 10-inches.
Place two of the rectangles on lightly greased baking sheets; spread each with half the meat mixture and top with the remaining rectangles.
Seal turnovers by pressing all edges with a fork.
Make 3 slashes in top rust.
Bake 15 minutes.
Serves 4.
