Creating these delectable Cranberry Turkey Stuffing Balls is straightforward. Follow these simple steps to achieve delicious results:
1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or lightly greasing it.
2. Prepare the Vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the onions and celery until softened, about 5 minutes. Allow them to cool slightly.
3. Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, bread crumbs, sautéed onions and celery, chopped cranberries, parsley, sage, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine.

6. Bake: Place the baking sheet in the preheated oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the stuffing balls are golden brown and cooked through.
