Ingredients
| Ingredient | Amount |
|---|---|
| Mashed potatoes | 2 cups |
| Stuffing | 2 cups |
| Cooked turkey (shredded) | 1 cup |
| Parmesan cheese (grated) | ½ cup |
| Egg (beaten) | 1 |
| Bread crumbs | ¼ cup |
| Salt | ¼ teaspoon |
| Ground black pepper | ⅛ teaspoon |
Instructions
Step 1: Prep and Mix
Set your oven to 375°F (190°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, stuffing, turkey, Parmesan, egg, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper. Stir until the mixture is evenly blended.
Step 2: Shape the Balls
Scoop out the mixture and roll into 1-inch balls. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart.
Step 3: Bake Until Golden
Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until the outside is crisp and lightly browned, and the inside is warmed through.
Step 4: Serve and Enjoy
Serve immediately with your choice of dipping sauce—gravy or cranberry sauce both work wonderfully.
