Leftover Turkey Stuffing Balls: The Ultimate Amazing Recipe


  • Author: Clara Walker
  • Total Time: 58 minute

Ingredients

– 3 cups leftover turkey, shredded
– 2 cups leftover stuffing
– 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella works well)
– 1/2 cup cooked vegetables (like carrots, peas, or corn)
– 2 large eggs
– 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
– 1 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1 teaspoon onion powder
– 1/2 teaspoon salt
– 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
– 1 cup breadcrumbs (for coating)
– Olive oil or cooking spray (for baking)


Instructions

Creating Leftover Turkey Stuffing Balls is a breeze when you follow these simple steps:

1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it with cooking spray.

2. Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded turkey, leftover stuffing, shredded cheese, cooked vegetables, eggs, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well incorporated.

3. Form Balls: Using your hands, scoop out a portion of the mixture and roll it into a ball, about the size of a golf ball. Place the formed ball on the prepared baking sheet. Repeat until all the mixture is used.

4. Coat with Breadcrumbs: Roll each ball in breadcrumbs to give them a crispy outer layer. This step is optional but adds a delightful crunch.

5. Bake: Drizzle the balls with olive oil or spray them lightly with cooking spray. Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until golden brown and heated through.

6. Cool Slightly: Once done, remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the balls cool for a few minutes before serving.

7. Serve: These delicious Leftover Turkey Stuffing Balls can be served warm or at room temperature.
