Stuffing Balls

These stuffing balls are a must-make recipe for Thanksgiving, passed down to me by my grandmother. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, they’re a nice alternative to traditional dressing baked in a casserole dish. While they’re great served alongside your holiday bird, they’re also a nice side to roasted chicken or pork chops any night of the week.
