Filling (Stuffing) Balls

Everyone dines on some sort of stuffing or filling during the holiday season. Often, there’s an argument on what the right type to make is, but have you ever considered Filling (Stuffing) Balls? In a roll-like shape, these bundles piece together a mix of white, rye, and wheat breads, onion, celery, and a binding agent. Imagine your usual holiday stuffing but in a new ball form, allowing you to crumble off pieces or the kiddos to eat straight out of their hands.
