Turkey Biscuit Turnovers

I've lost another pound on this diet!

Last night, I made another hearty, yet healthy, meal.  These were like tasty turkey meat pies.

Here's what you'll need!

• 3 tbsp light cream cheese, softened
• 2 tbsp fat free Cream of Mushroom soup
• 2 tbsp evaporated skim milk
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp pepper
• 1 lb ground turkey, cooked and broken up
• 1 tbsp minced onion
• 1 can mini biscuits (6 ct)
• 1 egg white, lightly beaten
• 1 tbsp bread crumbs

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Lightly spray a cookie sheet with non-stick spray.
2. In a medium bowl, mix the cream cheese, soup, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth.  Add the turkey and onion.  Mix well.
3. Separate the dough into 6 biscuits.  Roll two biscuits together to form a ball. Use your hands or a rolling pin to press the dough into a 6" circle.  Repeat with the remaining biscuits.
4. Spoon about 3/4 cup of the turkey mixture onto half of each biscuit circle.  Fold the other half of the biscuit over the filling to form a turnover.  Seal with the tines of a fork.
5. Brush the tops with the egg white and sprinkle with bread crumbs.
6. Transfer turnovers to the cookie sheet.  Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.
