Balls made of leftover turkey and stuffing

 






Perfect! Those delicious golden patties in the photo could absolutely be Leftover Turkey and Stuffing Cakes — a genius and tasty way to use up holiday leftovers.

Here’s a simple and flavorful recipe:


Leftover Turkey & Stuffing Cakes

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups cooked turkey, finely chopped or shredded
  • 2 cups stuffing (any kind, moist works best)
  • 2 eggs (for binding)
  • ½ cup shredded cheese (optional, cheddar works great)
  • ¼ cup finely chopped green onions or parsley (optional)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • ½ tsp garlic powder or dried herbs (optional)
  • ½ cup breadcrumbs (if needed for structure)
  • Oil or butter for frying

Instructions:

  1. Mix:

    • In a large bowl, combine turkey, stuffing, eggs, cheese, and any seasonings or herbs.
    • If the mixture is too loose to hold together, add a bit of breadcrumbs to help bind.
  2. Shape:

    • Form into patties or balls about 2–3 inches wide.
  3. Cook:

    • Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
    • Fry patties for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and crispy.
  4. Serve:

    • Serve warm with gravy, cranberry sauce, or a dollop of sour cream.
