Ingredients

Scale

Turkey Rollups

8 thick slices oven roasted deli turkey breast (sliced at the deli on a 4 or 5 setting)
5 ounce box turkey or chicken stuffing mix (regular or low sodium)
1/2 cup dried cranberries (optional)
4 ounces shredded Swiss cheese

Stuffing Preparation

1 1/2 cups turkey or chicken broth or stock (regular or low sodium)
1/4 cup unsalted butter

Gravy

10.5 ounce can low-sodium cream of chicken soup
12 ounce jar turkey gravy

Optional Garnishes

Cranberry sauce
Fresh snipped parsley

Instructions

Preheat Oven and Prepare Dish: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13×9-inch baking dish thoroughly using nonstick spray or butter to prevent sticking during baking.
Make Broth Mixture: In a medium saucepan, combine the chicken or turkey broth/stock and unsalted butter. Heat over medium until the butter has melted and the mixture reaches a boil. At this point, add dried cranberries if using, and allow them to cook for 30 seconds to soften and wilt.
Prepare Stuffing: Stir in the stuffing mix from the box into the hot broth and butter mixture. Immediately turn off the heat, cover the saucepan, and let the stuffing stand for 30 seconds to absorb the liquid and fully rehydrate.
Incorporate Cheese: After the resting time, fold the shredded Swiss cheese into the prepared stuffing mixture evenly, creating a creamy, cheesy stuffing blend.
Assemble Rollups: Lay the turkey slices flat on a clean cutting board. Place an even amount of the stuffing mixture along the center of each slice. Carefully roll up each turkey slice tightly around the stuffing, then place each roll seam-side down in the prepared baking dish. Repeat until all slices are used.
Prepare Gravy and Pour: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the low-sodium cream of chicken soup and the jar of turkey gravy until smooth and fully combined. Pour this creamy gravy evenly over the turkey and stuffing rollups in the baking dish.
Bake Rollups: Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil to keep moisture in. Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes. After this time, remove the foil and continue baking uncovered for another 10 minutes or until the dish is heated through and bubbly around the edges.
Serve with Garnishes: Once done baking, optionally garnish the dish with cranberry sauce and fresh snipped parsley for added color and flavor. Serve warm and enjoy.

Notes

To slice turkey evenly, ask the deli to slice the turkey breast on a thicker setting (4 or 5) to ensure the rollups hold well.
Using low sodium broth, soup, and gravy helps control the salt content in this dish.
Dried cranberries add a lovely sweetness; omit if preferred or substitute with dried cherries.
Be careful not to overstuff the turkey slices to avoid breakage while rolling.
Covering the dish with foil during baking retains moisture, removing foil at the end allows for slight browning and bubbling.
This recipe can be made ahead through assembly and stored covered in the refrigerator before baking.
