Follow these simple steps to create your Cranberry Turkey Stuffing Balls:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a baking sheet with cooking spray or oil.
2. Cook the Vegetables: In a skillet over medium heat, sauté the diced onion and celery until they are soft and translucent, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. Mix Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, cooked vegetables, stuffing mix, chopped cranberries, chicken broth, eggs, parsley, thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined. If using cheese, fold it in at this stage.
4. Form Balls: Using your hands, form the mixture into small balls, about 1 to 1.5 inches in diameter, and place them on the prepared baking sheet.
5. Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the stuffing balls are golden brown and the turkey is cooked through.
6. Check Doneness: Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature of the stuffing balls reaches at least 165°F (74°C).
7. Cool: Remove from the oven and let them cool for a few minutes before serving.
