This recipe was great… used all leftovers from the turkey i made the night before… so it was easy-peasy… will save some gravy next time to pour on top… definitely will add to my recipe book!
Thank you for this great croquette recipe. My family is from Spain & make the deep fried version on special occasions…now I can make these anytime since they are way healthier!!
I love your website & all the great info you have for us, thank you for all the great menu ideas & recipes too!
you said to shape them into croquettes……..what’s a croquette? lol
I am going to try this to use up some Thanksgiving leftovers!!
Oops, I should have mentioned that! I just sprayed a bit of PAM on the cookie sheet so that the croquettes didn’t stick.
How did you get them to not stick to the baking sheet? More butter?
We went to a nice restaurant where I had halibut on top of lobster croquettes!
So nice.
