• Ready In: 40mins
• Ingredients: 13
• Serves: 8

ingredients

• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1⁄2 cup chopped onion
• 1 lb ground beef
• 2 cups fresh broccoli florets, diced
• 1 tablespoon flour
• 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1⁄4 - 1⁄2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
• 1⁄2 cup sour cream
• 10 ounces Philadelphia Savory Garlic Cooking Creme
• 24 sheets thawed phyllo pastry dough
• 6 tablespoons butter, melted
• 1 tablespoon fresh minced parsley

directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. In a large skillet heat olive oil over medium high heat, add the onions and cook 2-3 minutes, stirring once or twice. Add the ground beef, breaking up into fine pieces, cooking until browned and no longer pink about 5-8 minutes, drain.
2. Return meat mixture back to skillet, add the broccoli and cook 2-3 minutes over medium high heat. Sprinkle the flour, salt, pepper & red pepper flakes over the mixture and stir to coat.
3. Add the sour cream and the PHILADELPHIA Savory Garlic Cooking Crème, reserve 3 tablespoons of the cooking crème for garnish, let simmer on low heat for 2-3 minutes stirring to incorporate all the ingredients.
4. Place a sheet of phyllo pastry dough on a flat surface, brush with melted butter. Place another sheet of phyllo pastry dough on top, brush that sheet with butter, place a third sheet on top (do not butter top sheet). Using a pizza cutter, cut in half lengthwise, set aside. Repeat this method until you have used all of the phyllo pastry dough sheets and you have 16 strips in all.
5. Mound 1 heaping spoonful of the beef and broccoli filling at one end, 1 inch from the corner, and fold over opposite corner to make a triangle. Continue folding, wrapping like a flag, folding end to end.
6. Place the turnovers onto cookie sheets, brush the tops with the rest of the melted butter and bake for 12 -15 minutes for fresh turnovers, 15-18 minutes if frozen or until golden brown. Place on a serving platter, drizzle the remaining 3 tablespoons of the PHILADELPHIA Savory Garlic Cooking Crème over all of the turnovers, sprinkle with the parsley and serve.
