Easy 4 ingredient Turkey and Stuffing Roll-Ups

 It's Frugal Friday or Five Ingredient Friday or whatever we are deciding to call it Friday because I just don't know yet!  LOL ANYWAY, This is where I share with you simple recipes, with minimal ingredients, can feed a crowd, and are easy on the wallet too!  Keep in mind these are not going to be culinary masterpieces.  However, I will do my best to share delicious food that everyone will love!  With that I am excited to share with you my Easy 4 Ingredient Turkey and Stuffing Roll-Ups!



This Easy 4 Ingredient Turkey and Stuffing Roll-Up Recipe is inspired by something Mamaw Gayle used to make for the kids at a pre-school I taught at years ago.  It was always a big hit and the kids were always asking for seconds!  It's the perfect recipe for a quick and tasty meal.  Perfect for those busy weeknights and you won't believe the cost!  I know we love it in my house, so...


Let's Get Started!



WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

  • 16 oz Deli Turkey Meat - 5.83
  • 6 oz box of Stuffing Mix - .97
  • 2 (.87 oz) packets of Turkey Gravy Mix - 1.34
  • 1 1 (10.5 oz) Can of Cream of Chicken Soup - .67


WHAT KIND OF DELI TURKEY SHOULD I USE?

For this recipe I recommend getting a thicker cut deli meat.  As you roll the meat and stuffing the thinner slices are more likely to tear, and you just don't want that.  No one wants that.  I don't think leftover roast turkey would work for this recipe either.  You want something that is thicker, but bendable. 


WHAT STUFFING SHOULD I USE?

In this recipe I just use a box of the Great Value Brand turkey stuffing.  Any stuffing you like will work.  If you have left over stuff from a dinner, that will work too.  Don't be too picky here. 


WHAT GRAVY SHOULD I USE?

Again I used the Great Value Brand Turkey Gravy Packets.  That was the easiest way to keep this cost effective.  However, you can use any kind of turkey gravy you want.  You can even make it from scratch which would save you even more money if you have everything on hand.  


CAN THIS BE MADE PLANT-BASED:

You won't believe this, but yes!

You will need to use a plant-based deli meat and a stuffing mix that doesn't use meat broth in it.  Usually cornbread stuff is a good bet for that.  

For the gravy use not chicken bullion or veggie broth to make a gravy.  They also make vegetarian gravy mixes that would work great here too. 


CAN I SUBSTITUTE FOR CHICKEN OR BEEF?

Sure!  You can use chicken deli meat, stuffing, and gravy or roast beed and beef gravy.  Whatever you like will work here.  


HOW MUCH PER SERVING?

  • 16 oz Deli Turkey Meat - 5.83
  • 6 oz box of Stuffing Mix - .97
  • 2 (.87 oz) packets of Turkey Gravy Mix - 1.34
  • 1 1 (10.5 oz) Can of Cream of Chicken Soup - .67

This brings us to a grand total of 8.81.  That's a whopping 1.50 per serving for 6 servings.  

Now if you wanted to make this a complete meal add and extra 2.00 for instant mashed potatoes and 1.28 for canned corn and you have a total of  12.09 for a cost of 2.00 a serving for 6 people!  You can't beat that! 






Okay, I feel like I have answered any questions you may have.  If I've missed anything feel free to leave them in the comments.  

Now on to the recipe!
