Ingredients
125 g smoked turkey, sliced about 1/4-in. thick
1/4 yellow bell pepper
1 green onion
1/4 cup finely chopped pecans, or celery
1/4 cup finely chopped dried cranberries
1/4 cup mayonnaise, light or regular
1 tbsp finely chopped pickled jalapenos
40-g pkg Siljans Crispy Cup Mini Croustades, see Shopping tip below, or baked mini tart shells
Instructions
For diced turkey, cut slices into 1/4-inch (0.5-cm-) wide strips, then into small cubes. Finely chop pepper and thinly slice onion. In a large bowl, stir turkey with pepper, onion, pecans and cranberries. Stir in mayonnaise and jalapeños. (Stir in a little more mayonnaise if you want it creamier.) Use right away or refrigerate, covered or sealed in a plastic bag, up to 1 day.
To serve, mound about 2 tsp (10 mL) filling into each crispy cup. Arrange on a large platter. Serve within half an hour of filling cups.

Shopping Tip
Packages of small, crisp cocktail cups called "croustades" are sold in many supermarkets, often where you'll find the cocktail breads or appetizers.
