Stuffing Bites - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups leftover mashed potatoes
2 cups leftover stuffing
2 eggs
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 cups panko bread crumbs

Mix mashed potatoes, stuffing, eggs, Parmesan cheese, poultry seasoning, 1 teaspoon salt, and pepper together in a large bowl until well combined.
Pour panko bread crumbs into a wide shallow bowl. Form 2 tablespoonfuls of stuffing mixture into a ball. Roll in bread crumbs until well coated. Repeat with remaining stuffing mixture.
