Step-by-step instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a baking dish.
- Prepare the stuffing according to the package directions. When done, fluff it with a fork for that perfect texture.
- Lay out your turkey slices on a flat surface. Spoon about 2–3 tablespoons of the prepared stuffing onto each slice.
- Roll each turkey slice tightly and place them seam-side down in the greased baking dish.
- In a saucepan, prepare the gravy by mixing the packet with 2 cups of water and the butter. Stir until smooth and it begins to thicken.
- Pour half of the gravy over the rolled turkey slices.
- Bake uncovered for about 25–30 minutes, or until the dish is hot and bubbly.
- Serve it up with extra gravy on the side and your favorite sides, like mashed potatoes or green bean casserole.
