Tuna Turnovers


If you like Tuna Melt Sandwiches, you are sure to enjoy these handheld turnovers as well. They are good to send along for lunches or along side of a soup or salad.

Dough
  • 3 cups flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 4 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 cup  butter or margarine
  • 1 egg
  • milk to fill 1 cup with egg in it 

  1. Combine all the dry ingredients in a bowl.
  2. Add the cold butter or margarine and cut butter into the flour to get course crumbs.
  3. Add the egg into a one cup measure, fill the remaining cup with milk.
  4. Stir the wet ingredients to form into a dough.
  5. Roll out the dough on a well floured surface and cut into 5 inch rounds, or what ever size you would like your turnovers to be.
  6. Add a tablespoon of filling to the center. 
  7. Fold over dough and seal. 
  8. Bake at 400 for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.
Filling
  • 2 - 7 ounce tuna in water, drained well
  •  2 cups shredded old / aged cheddar cheese
  • 2 teaspoons butter
  • 1/4 cup onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup green pepper, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup mushrooms, finely chopped
  • enough mayonnaise to moisten tuna mixture
  1. Saute onion, green pepper, mushroom in butter until the onion is soft and transparent.
  2. Add it to the tuna and cheese.
  3. Add enough mayonnaise to the tuna to moisten.
Tip- we like a bit of spice in our food so I added a little sprinkle of cayenne pepper into the Tuna mixture.
