Notes
Expert Tips
- Don't overstuff the turkey rollups. Divide it up evenly between the slices before rolling them up.
- Use leftover stuffing instead of boxed stuffing if you have it. This is a great meal for the day after Thanksgiving to use up those leftovers.
- Cover the baking dish with foil to prevent the rollups from drying out. This will keep everything nice and moist, rather than dry and rubbery.
- Customize with your own ingredients. You can add cranberry sauce or even a little dollop of mashed potatoes or sweet potatoes to the inside of the rollups to make them extra delicious!
- Homemade cream of chicken soup. Combine 3 tablespoons butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in ⅓ cup all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute. Whisk in ⅓ cup milk and ⅓ cup chicken broth until well combined. Season with ¼ teaspoon onion powder and salt and pepper to taste. Stir and cook for 1-2 minutes or until thickened and creamy.
- Homemade stove top stuffing. Combine 6 cups toasted bread cubes, 1 tablespoon parsley flakes, 3 chicken bouillon cubes or 1 tablespoon salt free chicken bouillon powder, 1/4 cup dried onion flakes, 1/4 cup dried celery flakes, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon sage, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
- Homemade turkey gravy. Bring 4 cups of turkey broth or stock mixed to a boil. Mix ⅓ cup cornstarch with ⅓ cup cold water, then whisk it into the boiling broth gradually until thickened. Stir in 2–3 tablespoons of fresh herbs like parsley, thyme, and sage, then season with salt and pepper to taste. You'll need 12 ounces of this for the gravy for the rollups.
Storage
Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4-5 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave. Add a spoonful of extra gravy before reheating to make sure the turkey and stuffing rollups stay moist.Nutrition
