Notes

No real measurements are needed, simply combine equal parts mashed potatoes and stuffing and then add half the amount of shredded turkey. Over the years, I now encrust the balls in seasoned panko and fry them up in a bit of butter and grapeseed oil in a nonstick pan. If they are super soft, chill just a bit before frying.
