1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded turkey, cheddar cheese, mayonnaise, celery, red bell pepper, green onions, dijon mustard, and dried cranberries. Mix well to create the filling.
3. Unroll the crescent roll dough and separate it into triangles. Arrange the triangles in a circle on the prepared baking sheet, with the wide ends overlapping in the center and the pointed ends facing outward, creating a sunburst shape.
4. Spoon the turkey filling evenly around the wide ends of the dough triangles, leaving the pointed ends exposed.
5. Fold the pointed ends of the crescent rolls over the filling and tuck them under the wide edges to form a wreath. Pinch the dough lightly to secure it in place.
6. Brush the top of the wreath with the beaten egg to give it a golden finish.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the dough is golden brown and cooked through.
8. Remove the wreath from the oven and let it cool for 5 minutes. Carefully transfer it to a serving platter.
9. Slice into portions and serve warm. Enjoy your beautifully festive Turkey Crescent Wreath!
