A comforting dish that combines flaky layers with a savory filling of turkey and Gruyere cheese, perfect for busy weeknights or cozy gatherings.
Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1 lb cooked turkey, shredded or diced
- 1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese
- 1 can (8 oz) refrigerated crescent roll dough
- ½ cup cream of mushroom soup
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Optional: fresh parsley for garnish
Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease the baking dish lightly or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded turkey, Gruyere cheese, cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir until well incorporated.
- Open the crescent roll dough and unroll it on a clean surface. Pinch the seams together to create a single layer.
- Spread the turkey and cheese mixture evenly over the dough, leaving a small border around the edges.
- Starting from one end, carefully roll the dough up tightly to form a log shape. Slice the log into 12 equal pieces.
Baking
- Arrange the rolls in the prepared baking dish, standing them upright.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the rolls are golden brown and puffed.
Notes
Feel free to substitute leftover chicken for turkey. Add sautéed mushrooms or spinach to the filling for extra nutrition. Use pre-cooked turkey or rotisserie chicken for a quicker meal. This dish tastes even better after sitting for a few minutes before serving.
