How to Make Turkey And Stuffing Meatballs

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup milk and 1 large egg until well combined.
  3. Add 1 cup prepared stuffing mix, 1/2 cup finely chopped celery, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Mix thoroughly.
  4. Add 1 pound ground turkey to the bowl.
  5. Gently mix all ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Shape the mixture into 1-inch meatballs. Place them on an ungreased baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the meatballs are browned and cooked through.
  8. While the meatballs are baking, prepare the cranberry sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine 1 (14-ounce) can cranberry sauce, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce.
  9. Bring the cranberry sauce to a boil over medium heat.
  10. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
  11. Once the meatballs are cooked, add them to the cranberry sauce. Cook over medium-low heat for 5-10 minutes, gently stirring, to allow the meatballs to absorb the flavors of the sauce.
  12. Serve the Turkey and Stuffing Meatballs in Cranberry Sauce hot. Garnish with fresh parsley, if desired.
