Turkey Croquettes

This is a great recipe to use up leftover turkey or chicken. It does not taste anything like leftovers. Makes about six 2-inch croquette balls. Definitely need to double or triple recipe for large groups as I can eat 2 croquettes easily.

Step: 1

Place bread in a blender and blend until soft crumbs form. Place bread crumbs in a shallow bowl.
