Posted on October 26, 2007
1 lb ground turkey
½ cup onion, finely chopped
1/3 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ tsp pepper
¼ lb medium size mushrooms, quartered
10.5 oz frozen chopped spinach, defrosted & drained
1 cup reduced fat Mozzarella cheese, shredded
3 - 9.5 oz tubes refrigerated pastry pockets 3
Preheat oven to 375ºF (190ºC). In a large non-stick skillet, over medium high heat, sauté turkey, onion, bell pepper, garlic and pepper until turkey is no longer pink. Add mushrooms and cook 1 minute. Fold in spinach, cook 1 to 2 minutes or until most of the liquid is absorbed. Stir in cheese, remove from heat and set aside.
Unroll pastry, separating each tube into 4 squares. Place on greased 10 x 15 x 1 inch (25 x 38 x 2 cm) cookie sheet. Stretch pastry slightly to shape squares.
Place 1/3 cup (75 ml) filling on one corner of each square. Fold opposite corner of dough over filling to form a triangle, press edges with fork to seal. Cut three ½ inch (1 cm)slits into top of each triangle to allow steam to escape. Bake 12 to 15 minutes or until golden brown. Remove triangles from sheet and cool on wire rack. Serve triangle with Dijon mustard if desired. Makes 12 servings.
