Step‑by‑Step: How to Make Easy Turkey & Stuffing Roll Ups
-
Prepare the stuffing
-
Follow the instructions on the stuffing mix package. (If the package offers a microwave method, that’s quick and convenient.)
-
Once cooked/rehydrated, fluff it a bit with a fork and set aside.
-
-
Mix the gravy‑soup sauce
-
In a large bowl, whisk together the cream of chicken soup and turkey gravy until smooth and well combined.
-
-
Preheat and prep
-
Preheat your oven to 350 °F (approximately 175 °C).
-
Grease a 9 × 13 inch baking dish using nonstick spray or a light brushing of butter.
-
-
Assemble the roll ups
-
Lay out each turkey slice on a clean surface.
-
Spoon about ¼ cup of the prepared stuffing onto one end of each turkey slice.
-
Roll up the turkey slice around the stuffing (like a roulade) and place it seam side down in the baking dish.
-
Continue until all 8 turkey slices are rolled and arranged in the dish.
-
-
Add gravy and bake
-
Pour approximately 1½ cups of the remaining gravy‑soup mixture over the turkey roll ups, trying to coat the tops and fill in around them.
-
If desired, sprinkle dried parsley flakes over the top for color.
-
Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil.
-
-
Bake and finish
-
Bake for 30 minutes, or until the roll ups are heated through, the stuffing is hot, and the gravy is bubbly.
-
While the casserole bakes, optionally warm the remaining gravy (if you have extra) in a saucepan over medium heat to serve on the side.
-
-
Serve
-
Remove the foil, let rest for a few minutes, then serve the roll ups with extra gravy poured over if desired.
-
Helpful Tipsµ
-
Use thin slices: If your turkey breast slices are thick, consider slicing them thinner so they roll easily and heat through.
-
Don’t overstuff: ¼ cup of stuffing is enough—overstuffing may cause the roll to burst open while baking.
-
Distribute sauce evenly: Pour gravy slowly and use a spoon to fill gaps around rolls so every piece gets sauced.
-
Tent loosely if needed: If the top is browning too much before baking finishes, place foil loosely over the top to protect it.
-
Let it rest: After baking, let the dish sit a few minutes so juices settle, which helps when you slice or serve.
Substitutions And Variations
-
Meat alternative: Use thin slices of chicken breast if turkey isn’t available.
-
Stuffing variation: Use cornbread stuffing, sage & onion mix, or a homemade bread stuffing with herbs.
-
Gravy/soup swap: Use cream of mushroom soup or cream of celery if you prefer. Use chicken or turkey gravy or make your own from scratch.
-
Add vegetables: For extra veggies, you might spread a thin layer of sautéed spinach, mushrooms, or diced onions in each roll before rolling.
-
Herbs & spices: Add fresh thyme, rosemary, garlic powder, or onion powder into the gravy mix for more flavor.
-
Cheese option: Add a thin slice of Swiss or Gruyère inside each roll for a melty surprise.
Storage Instructions
-
Refrigerator: Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3–4 days.
-
Reheating: Reheat in the oven (covered, at about 325–350 °F) until warmed through, or microwave individual servings.
-
Freezing: You can freeze the assembled (but unbaked) roll ups in a freezer‑safe container, or fully cooked leftovers. Freeze for up to 2 months. Let thaw in the refrigerator overnight before reheating or baking.

Frequently Asked Questions About Easy Turkey & Stuffing Roll Ups
Q: Can I assemble this dish ahead of time and bake later?
Yes, you can assemble the roll ups (without pouring on the gravy) and store them covered in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before baking. When ready, pour on the gravy mixture and bake per instructions (you may need a few extra minutes if chilled).
Q: What if I don’t have jarred gravy?
You can substitute by making your own gravy—use pan drippings (or butter + flour) and broth (turkey or chicken). Mix that with the cream of chicken soup to maintain creaminess.
Q: Can I skip the canned soup?
You could, but the canned soup helps thicken and bind the gravy, giving a creamy texture. If skipping, compensate by thickening your homemade gravy (e.g. using a roux or cornstarch slurry) so it’s not too runny.
Q: How many roll ups does this make — is it enough for a crowd?
This recipe makes 8 roll ups, so it can comfortably feed about 4–6 people (depending on serving sizes). You can double the recipe and use two baking dishes for more servings.
Q: How can I reduce the sodium?
Use low‑sodium or reduced-salt versions of the stuffing mix, canned soup, and gravy. Also, you can dilute gravy with extra broth or water and adjust seasonings to taste.
