Heat up the jar of turkey gravy and the frozen mixed vegetables in a saucepan over medium-high heat for 5 minutes.

Take a crescent roll and stretch it out a little to fit into a muffin cup.

Press the crescent roll into the muffin cup with the fatter end at the bottom and the pointy end sticking out.

Drop a scant quarter cup of the heated vegetables and gravy mixture into the crescent roll in the muffin cup.

Smoosh together the ends of the crescent roll to cover the vegetables slightly.

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

Place the muffin pan in the oven and bake for 10 minutes until golden brown.

Remove from the oven and let cool slightly before serving.
