The triangles were a little dry. I would add more sauce next time.

These triangles were a lot of work for the end result. I don't think I'll be making them again.

The triangles were difficult to fold and seal. I ended up with a few that fell apart.

I used a store-bought pie crust to save time, and it worked out great.

I followed the recipe exactly and the triangles turned out perfectly. They were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
