1/3 turkey meatloaf, crumbled (about 3 cups), reserved from Greek-Style Turkey Meatloaf
1 package (10 ounces) frozen chopped spinach, thawed and squeezed dry
3/4 cup ricotta
1 ounce feta, crumbled (1/4 cup)

12 sheets frozen phyllo dough, thawed

Cut in half crosswise and stack. Place 1 scant cup meat mixture in center; flatten slightly. Fold long sides inward to cover filling, followed by top and bottom. Lightly brush all over with oil.

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to cut the turkey and spinach finely. This will help the filling to cook evenly.
  • Don't overfill the hand pies. Otherwise, they will be difficult to seal and will burst open during baking.
  • Bake the hand pies until the pastry is golden brown and the filling is hot and bubbly. This will take about 20-25 minutes.
  • Let the hand pies cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help to prevent the filling from spilling out.
  • Serve the hand pies with your favorite dipping sauce. Some good options include ranch dressing, honey mustard, or barbecue sauce.
