Tuna Turnovers - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 (6 ounce) can tuna, drained
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
1/3 cup chopped celery
mayonnaise (enough to moisten)
2 teaspoons sweet pickle relish (not in orginal recipe, but that's how we like it)
1 teaspoon chives (or onion, finely chopped, I never add this actually, but if you love onions, go for it!)
biscuit dough (homemade or refrigerated)
Preparation
-
Combine all ingredients except biscuit dough.
Prepare biscuit dough - or open the tube :).
If homemade dough, roll out to 1/8-to 1/4 inch thickness. If premade biscuit dough, flatten out each biscuit a bit - I divide them in half if they're the big fat type.
Cut into 4-inch squares or rounds.
Place about 2 1/2 T filling onto each dough piece, fold over and pinch to seal.
I don't bother sealing these all the way - just roll them up and pinch closed across the top. Some of the filling may sneak out the ends, but I prefer them this way.
Bake 15 minutes in a 400 degree oven.
To freeze: Bake as directed and allow to cool. Wrap in plastic wrap and then place in a freezer bag. Seal, pushing out as much air as possible. Label and freeze.
To serve: Allow to thaw in fridge or microwave. Good warm or cold.
