Instructions:
Preheat oven to 350 F.
Chop Turkey into 1/4 inch pieces and set aside
Mix mashed potatoes and mashed sweet potatoes in a bowl, set aside.
Roll one biscuit out to about 7 inches on a floured surface, keeping it as circular as possible. Spread 2 Tablespoons of the potato mixture on one half of the rolled out biscuit. Even distribute 3 Tablespoons of the chopped Turkey on the potato mixture. Evenly distribute 2 Tablespoons of the stuffing over the Turkey. Drizzle about 2 Tablespoons of gravy over the stuffing.
Fold the biscuit over and pinch the edges together to form a seal.
Repeat the process for the remaining biscuits and fillings. (8 total)
Arrange pockets 1 inch apart on a baking sheet. cut a 1 inch X on the top of each pocket to allow for steam to escape. Bake on the center rack until the pocket is golden brown, about 20 minutes.
