Mini Reuben Turnovers

Jess4Freedom's Note:

These are a hit in my husbands family. They aren't as messy as the regular sandwich. Serve with Thousand Island dressing or horseradish sauce for dipping if desired. A great use for that leftover corned beef and cabbage from St Patrick's Day too!

This was really a tasty treat, and quite simple to make. I doubled the filling ingredients in order to use the entire can of crescent rolls. It goes very nice with Thousand Island dressing. Made for Please Review My Recipe Tag Game.

This is a delicious recipe very similar to Mini Reuben Turnovers (Pillsbury) just with more meat and cheese added (and who doesn't love more cheese?!). This recipe also has a great twist by adding a suggestion in the description of using horseradish sauce for dipping. We used Creamy Horseradish Sauce for Roast Beef and it went super with these. :)
