Meal No. 3168: Savory Garlic Beef & Broccoli Turnovers

Oh, it's been far, far too long since I made these wonderful savory garlic beef and broccoli turnovers. I think about them regularly but I suppose it takes the right convergence of events and components for it to all come to fruition. When the extra special guests at supper are Amy and Kristen, which happened Tuesday of last week, out must all the stops be pulled!

This is a Philadelphia Cream Cheese contest-winning recipe, from back when they were working hard to drum up consumer investment in their short-lived cooking creme line of cream cheeses. Alas, consumer demand did not measure up, it seems, but fortunately the substitutes are easy enough to throw together...even better without all the stabilizers and additives that apparently marred the original product.
