TUNA TURNOVERS
This is one of those recipes that is so beat up that it fell out of the book - The More with Less Cookbook by Doris Janzen Longacre. I learned a lot from this cookbook when I was a newlywed and new mother figuring out how to plan meals. These are great if you make your own biscuit dough but they're super easy if you use the refrigerated kind!

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.

THE BEST TUNA SALAD
While we love many kinds of tuna salad, this classic version tops them all. The crispy celery and red onion give add zest and crunch, while mayonnaise and touch of mustard marry it all together. The lemon juice is optional as it's not traditional, but we strongly recommend it to brighten up the flavors of the final dish.

POTATO CHIP ENCRUSTED TUNA TURNOVERS
I was recently given quite a few cans of tuna, so I dug into my collection of tuna recipes to see what I could come up with. I used to make these turnovers for my daughter when she was little; she loved them! Sometimes I would wrap them well in aluminum foil, put them in a wide mouth thermos, and they would still be warm come lunch time at school. These are a snap to prepare, and are thrifty and good. The potato chip crust makes them a little 'special', for kids and adults! They can be made into a hearty appetizer by tearing the dough for each biscuit in half and halving the filling.
