Ingredients
  

2 cups leftover turkey, shredded

1 cup cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1/4 cup green onions, chopped

1/4 cup diced roasted red peppers

1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce

1 teaspoon garlic powder

Salt and pepper, to taste

1 package of puff pastry (2 sheets)

1 egg, beaten (for egg wash)

Instructions
 

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

    Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded turkey, cream cheese, cheddar cheese, green onions, roasted red peppers, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.

      Roll Out Puff Pastry: On a lightly floured surface, roll out one sheet of puff pastry to about 1/8 inch thick. Cut the pastry into squares, approximately 3x3 inches.

        Fill the Pastry Squares: Place a tablespoon of the turkey mixture in the center of each puff pastry square.

          Seal the Pastry: Fold the squares over to create triangles or bring all corners to the center. Press and seal the edges using a fork to ensure they are well sealed.

            Egg Wash: Place the filled pastry bites onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Brush the tops with the beaten egg for a golden finish.

              Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, or until the pastry is golden brown and puffed.

                Serve: Let cool for a few minutes, then serve warm as delightful appetizers or snacks.
