Ingredients

Stuffing Dumplings:

  • 2 Cup Leftover Stuffing
  • Cup. Flour
  • 2 Eggs

Leftover Turkey Soup:

  • 1 Cup Carrots diced
  • ½ Cup Celery chopped
  • ½ Cup Onion chopped
  • ½ Cup Butter
  • Cup Flour
  • 6 Cups Chicken Broth
  • 1 Cups Potatoes small cubed
  • 2 Cups Turkey chopped cooked
  • 6 oz Velveeta cubed Queso Blanco Velveeta

Instructions

  • In a small mixing bowl, mix the 2 cups of stuffing, ⅓ cup flour, and 2 eggs well.
  • Scoop out in ½  Tablespoon-sized globs and place them on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.  I usually get about 32 small dumplings.  Put them in the fridge while you make the soup.
  • In a large pot, melt the butter. Saute the carrots, celery, and onions in the butter until slightly soft.
  • Stir in the flour. Mix until smooth.  Add the chicken broth a little at a time until fully incorporated and smooth.
  • Add the potatoes and simmer until cooked through.
  • Add the turkey.
  • Add the queso blanco Velveeta.
  • Once the Velveeta is melted and thoroughly mixed through the soup, bring it to a low boil.
  • Roll each stuffing dumpling glob into a ball and carefully drop it in the soup.
  • Boil for 5 minutes to cook the dumplings.
  • Remove from heat and cool slightly before serving.  Garnish with chives if desired.
