Instructions

Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
Combine Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the mashed potatoes, stuffing, shredded turkey, grated Parmesan cheese, beaten egg, bread crumbs, salt, and black pepper. Mix everything well until thoroughly combined.
Form Balls: Using your hands, take portions of the mixture and form them into 1-inch balls. Make sure the balls are evenly sized.
Place on Baking Sheet: Arrange the turkey stuffing balls on the prepared baking sheet, spacing them slightly apart to allow for even baking.
Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the balls are golden brown and heated through.
Serve: Serve the turkey stuffing balls hot, with a side of gravy or cranberry sauce for dipping.

Notes

For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free breadcrumbs and stuffing.

Add fresh herbs like parsley or rosemary to the mixture for extra flavor.

Feel free to add sautéed vegetables like onions, carrots, or celery for more texture.

You can also freeze these balls before baking and bake them later from frozen.
