Turkey Cheese Pockets (Or Ham and Cheese Pockets) image

These are so easy to make for a quick hot lunch and taste so much better then the pockets you can buy in the store. You can also use jarred pizza sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella cheese to make pizza pockets as well.

Time 27m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 tablespoon mayonnaise or 1 tablespoon Miracle Whip
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 cup turkey, finely chopped
1/4 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
1 (7 1/2 ounce) can refrigerated biscuits (10 biscuits)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees (205 celsius).
  • Mix cream cheese, mayo, and mustard in a small bowl.
  • Add turkey and cheese; mix well and set aside.
  • Press or roll out each biscuit to a 3 1/2 inch round.
  • Place 1 heaping tablespoon of the cream cheese mixture onto each biscuit round.
  • Fold dough over the filling to make a small turnover shape; seal edges by pressing firmly together.
  • Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake 10 to 12 minutes until lightly browned.

  • To make ham pockets, replace turkey with chopped ham and mozzarella with shredded cheddar cheese.

I'm not a big fan of processed meats, so I used grilled chicken breast instead of turkey or ham. It was a healthier and just as delicious option.

These are perfect for a party or potluck. I made a double batch and they were all gone in no time.

I'm not a big fan of crescent roll dough, so I used puff pastry instead. It worked great and the pockets were even flakier.

These are so good! I used a combination of turkey and ham, and added some chopped green onions to the filling. They were a big hit with my kids.

I love that these pockets can be made ahead of time and frozen. It's so convenient to have a quick and easy meal on hand when I'm short on time.

I've made these ham and cheese pockets several times now, and they're always a hit. The crescent roll dough is so flaky and buttery, and the filling is perfectly cheesy and savory.
