Flavor-Packed Turkey Roll-Ups with Stuffing (Printable)
Tender turkey wrapped around savory stuffing with cheese, baked in rich gravy. A simple, satisfying five-ingredient meal ready in 50 minutes.
# What You'll Need:
→ Turkey
01 - 8 thin slices turkey breast (about 1.5 lbs)
→ Stuffing
02 - 2 cups prepared stuffing (from a box mix or homemade)
→ Cheese
03 - 4 slices provolone or mozzarella cheese, halved
→ Sauce
04 - 1 cup turkey or chicken gravy
→ Garnish
05 - 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley (optional)
# How to Make It:
01 - Preheat oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a baking dish with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
02 - Lay turkey breast slices flat on a clean cutting board or work surface. Pat dry with paper towels if needed.
03 - Place 2–3 tablespoons of prepared stuffing in the center of each turkey slice. Top with half a slice of provolone or mozzarella cheese.
04 - Roll each turkey slice tightly around the stuffing and cheese filling. Secure with toothpicks if necessary to hold the roll shape.
05 - Place the turkey roll-ups seam-side down in the prepared baking dish, spacing them evenly.
06 - Pour the turkey or chicken gravy evenly over all the roll-ups in the dish.
07 - Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake for 25 minutes to allow the turkey to cook through and flavors to meld.
08 - Remove the foil and continue baking for another 10 minutes, or until the turkey is fully cooked and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F when tested with a meat thermometer.
09 - Remove toothpicks before serving. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley if desired. Serve hot with mashed potatoes, steamed vegetables, or your favorite sides.
