1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) for baking after frying.
2. Sauté Vegetables: In a skillet, heat a bit of oil and sauté the chopped onions and celery until they are soft and translucent.
3. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the cooked turkey, sautéed vegetables, stuffing mix, chicken broth, parsley, thyme, salt, pepper, and eggs. Mix until well combined.
