Easy Prep, Low Calorie
Healthy Buffalo Chicken Meatballs
20 minutes
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground chicken (I like 99% lean)
- 1 egg
- ½ cup almond flour
- 1 Tablespoon of ranch dressing mix
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 cup buffalo sauce (I love Frank’s brand!)
- Optional: green onions, ranch dressing, blue cheese dressing
- 1 head cauliflower – side
- 4 large potatoes – side
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and lightly grease a 9×13 baking dish.
- In a large bowl, combine all ingredients except for the buffalo sauce. Don’t overmix or it will get mushy!
- Scoop about 1 Tablespoon of mixture, roll into a ball, and place in the baking dish. Continue until all mixture is used.
- Bake at 400 degrees for about 15 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160 degrees F.
- Pour buffalo sauce into a large bowl and toss meatballs to coat. Serve with green onions, ranch or blue cheese if desired.
Quick Tip
You can leave the buffalo sauce off and the meatballs taste great plain!
