Stuffing Meatballs

Stuffing Ball Turkey  Noodle Soup












This gluten free stuffing ball recipe transforms your leftover stuffing into light fluffy meatballs with Thanksgiving flair.  Think of them as sort of a hybrid between delicious matzo balls and those tiny meatballs you’d find in Italian wedding soup.  

And once baked the stuffing balls can be eaten by themselves as an appetizer or tossed into the homemade turkey soup most of make after Thanksgiving anyway.  They’re like big fluffy stuffing dumplings the whole family will love.
