Tuna And Crescent Dough Recipes

TUNA SALAD CRESCENTS

Steps:

• In bowl, mix tuna salad and relish.
• Separate dough into 8 triangles. Spoon tuna mixture on short end of each triangle; top with cheese. Roll up loosely as directed on can. Place on ungreased cookie sheet. Brush with egg.
• Bake at 375°F 12 to 15 minutes.

TUNA POCKETS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Lightly stir together the tuna, onion, celery, shredded Cheddar cheese, dill, and mayonnaise until well combined.
• Flatten the biscuit dough to about 1/4-inch thick, and place the 8 flattened biscuits on an ungreased baking sheet. Place about 3 tablespoons of the tuna mixture on top of each biscuit, and top each with another flattened biscuit. Pinch the edges to seal in the filling.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is hot and the pockets are lightly browned, about 15 minutes. Refrigerate leftovers.

TUNA CRESCENT RING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°. Unroll crescent dough and separate into triangles. On an ungreased 12-in. pizza pan, arrange triangles in a ring with points toward the outside and wide ends overlapping. Press overlapping dough to seal., In a small bowl, combine the remaining ingredients. Spoon across wide end of triangles. Fold pointed end of triangles over filling, tucking points under to form a ring (filling will be visible)., Bake 15-20 minutes or until golden brown and heated through.

TUNA RING CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
• Measure 2 tablespoons of the beaten egg into a small bowl and set aside. Mix remaining egg, tuna, onion, 1/2 cup Cheddar cheese, parsley, celery salt, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper together in a large bowl.
• Stir 2 cups baking mix and cold water together to form a soft dough. Cover a cutting board with cheesecloth and lightly dust with flour. Turn dough out onto the prepared cutting board and knead 5 times. Roll into a 15x10-inch rectangle. Spread tuna mixture over the dough. Roll, beginning at one of the long side, into a cylinder; transfer to the prepared baking sheet with the sealed edge down. Shape the cylinder into a ring and pinch the ends together. With scissors, make cuts 2/3 of the way through ring at 1-inch intervals. Brush top with reserved egg.
• Bake in preheated oven until the outside is golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Beat 1/4 cup baking mix, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper into the butter; cook until smooth and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Remove saucepan from heat and stir milk into the butter mixture until smoothly incorporated. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring continually; cook at a boil for 1 minute; remove from heat and stir 1 cup Cheddar cheese into the mixture until melted. Pour over the tuna ring casserole to serve.

TUNA TURNOVERS

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients except biscuit dough.
• Prepare biscuit dough - or open the tube :).
• If homemade dough, roll out to 1/8-to 1/4 inch thickness. If premade biscuit dough, flatten out each biscuit a bit - I divide them in half if they're the big fat type.
• Cut into 4-inch squares or rounds.
• Place about 2 1/2 T filling onto each dough piece, fold over and pinch to seal.
• I don't bother sealing these all the way - just roll them up and pinch closed across the top. Some of the filling may sneak out the ends, but I prefer them this way.
• Bake 15 minutes in a 400 degree oven.
• To freeze: Bake as directed and allow to cool. Wrap in plastic wrap and then place in a freezer bag. Seal, pushing out as much air as possible. Label and freeze.
• To serve: Allow to thaw in fridge or microwave. Good warm or cold.
