Buffalo Balls

[TakeCareGirl 161]

I made these tonight and drizzled with blue cheese dressing - they were really good. They were a little mishapen as the meatball mixture was a little runny - so in the future I would probably start with just one egg. My recipe made 18 balls, using 3 balls as a serving, MFP calculated 1 serving with 269 calories, 1 carb, 21 grams fat, 19 grams Protein. A lot of the calories and fat came from the butter in the sauce, you could always omit and just drizzle the balls with the plain Frank's sauce if you wanted to drop the calories.

chicken or turkey

2 oz cream cheese, softened

2 eggs

2 Tbl chopped celery

3 Tbl crumbled blue cheese

1/2 tsp black pepper

For the sauce:

1/2 stick (4 oz) unsalted butter

1/2 cup Frank's Red Hot

Combine all of the meatball ingredients in a medium bowl. Form into about 1 inch balls. Place them on a greased cookie sheet (with sides) and bake at 350 degrees (F) for 10 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine the Frank's and butter in a small saucepan on medium heat, or place in a microwave safe bowl for 2 minutes on high.

After 10 minutes, remove balls from oven and dunk carefully (they are tender from the cream cheese and could fall apart if you are too rough) in the buffalo sauce.

Put back onto the cookie sheet and bake for another 12 minutes. If you have leftover sauce you could pour it over the meatballs and bake for another 3 to 4 minutes if you want them really saucy.
