TURKEY SAUSAGE BITES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F and spray 2 baking sheets with non-stick cooking spray.
• Prepare stuffing mix as directed on the packaging and mix with sausage and cheese until combined.
• Unroll one tube of dough and cut each triangle in half to create two smaller triangles.
• Place a 1/2 tablespoon drop of stuffing mix onto the widest side of the triangle and roll the dough around the stuffing mix towards the point of the dough.
• Fold the ends of the dough over the stuffing mix and pinch it to seal the filling inside.
• Spread 16 filled dough balls on the baking sheet and bake for 15-18 minutes, until golden brown.
• Repeat for the second package of dough.

CRISPY TURKEY BITES

Steps:

• For the dipping sauce: Puree the cranberry sauce, mayonnaise and orange zest in the bowl of a food processor until evenly combined. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• For the bites: Heat 3 inches of vegetable oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat to 350 degrees F on a deep-fry thermometer. Put the stuffing, turkey, Parmesan, rosemary and 1 egg in a medium bowl and mix well until the mixture is evenly moistened. Place the flour, remaining 2 eggs and the panko in 3 separate shallow bowls. Beat the eggs to break apart until 1 cohesive color.
• Shape 1 tablespoon of the turkey mixture into a ball. Press a piece of smoked mozzarella into the middle of the ball and reshape the mixture around the cheese. Bread the ball by rolling it first in the flour to coat, then the egg and lastly the panko. Repeat with the remaining turkey mixture and breading ingredients. Fry 4 to 5 or the balls at a time until deep golden brown and hot all the way through, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a paper-towel lined plate and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Serve hot alongside the dipping sauce.

TURKEY SAUSAGE BALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Combine turkey sausage, Cheddar cheese, steak seasoning, and fennel seeds in a bowl. Mix by hand. Add 1/2 of the baking mix and incorporate thoroughly by hand. Add remaining baking mix and repeat.
• Scoop up 1 tablespoon of mixture, form into a ball, and place on a baking sheet. Repeat with the rest of the mixture.
• Bake in the preheated oven until browned, 20 to 25 minutes.

HOMEMADE TURKEY SAUSAGE

Steps:

• Whisk together the fennel seed, sage, salt, pepper, thyme, garlic powder and allspice in a small bowl.
• Place the turkey in a medium bowl, then sprinkle the seasoning blend over it.
• Use your clean hands or 2 forks to gently work the seasoning into the meat, being careful not to overmix.
• It's OK if they are not absolutely evenly distributed throughout.
• Form the mixture into 8 (3 inch) patties. May be refrigerated to meld flavors or frozen for future use.
• Heat half the oil in a medium skillet over medium high heat. Once the oil shimmers, add half the patties; cook until nicely browned on the outside and cooked through, about 3 minutes per side.
• Transfer to a plate; repeat with the remaining oil and patties.
