Heat oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add onion and bell pepper; cook 3-4 minutes or until tender, stirring occasionally.

Add turkey; cook and stir until no longer pink.

Stir in garlic powder, annatto, cumin, oregano, thyme and tomato sauce. Reduce heat and simmer 2-3 minutes. Stir in almonds, olives and raisins.

Prepare crusts as directed on package. On lightly floured surface, press out each crust into 12-inch circle.

Using a 4-inch round cutter, cut each into 6 circles. Spoon 1 tablespoon of filling onto half of each circle. Moisten edges of each with water. Fold in half; press edge with a fork to seal. Place 2 inches apart on ungreased baking sheets. Pierce top of each with fork to vent.

Bake in preheated 350-degree oven for 25 minutes or until light golden brown. Serve warm.
