This recipe came out of my crescent roll experimentation and I love, love it. You could also use cooked turkey in this if you have Thanksgiving leftovers.
For each muffin liner tin you will need:
crescent roll dough triangle
4 bite size pieces of turkey
1 tsp black beans
pinch cilantro
salt and pepper
1 tbsp salsa
2 tsp shredded cheddar cheese
Spray the muffing tin liners with cooking spray. Place the short end of the crescent roll around the top of the muffin liner, and press it into place. Leave the long flap of the roll hanging. Layer in turkey, beans, cilantro, salt and pepper, salsa and cheddar.
Then fold the dough flap over and tuck it down the side. Bake at 375 for 20 minutes.
These were so cute and so tasty! You could put a little dollop of sour cream or guacamole on top if you wanted as well. My kids are loving my muffin tin recipes. Mr. NoPot was a big fan of this one as well!

Cute! This is an original and fun way to use leftovers – thanks for the inspiration.
Very fun. We’re making mole with our turkey leftovers.
Thank you for this! We’re facing a lot of turkey with too few ideas.
I love the ease of the recipe, and the combination of flavors, too.
Sounds like a great dish for lunch boxes too.
Love this idea – my husband says he hates recooked turkey, but this will camouflage it so even his picky tastebuds won’t notice.
This sounds like a process that could be transferred to other leftovers, too, which makes it nice.
Definitely. Chicken would work well here. And you could use leftover hamburger too.
Very tricky! I think the key to recooking turkey is to have a lot of moistness and a lot of flavor.
Oh those look INCREDIBLE! Wish they made gluten free crescent dough…
Great idea for leftover turkey.
These look fun, easy and tasty—and I have so much leftover turkey–I might just try them tonight!
Excellent idea!
yum! These look so easy and delicious! Thanks for the idea!
These look good minus the cilantro. Love anything made with crescent rolls.
You can definitely leave that out if you don’t like it.
What a great, easy way to use leftovers!
