Servings: 20 meatballs
Calories: 113kcal
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 tbsp pepper
- 1 tbsp parsley
- 1 packet ranch seasoning
- 1 egg
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
Sauce Ingredients
- 1/4 cup hot sauce
- 1/4 cup plain greek yogurt
- 2 tbsp butter melted
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium sized bowl, mix together all of your ingredients for your meatballs.
- Using a spoon, or a cookie scoop, scoop out small portions of meat and roll into a ball using the palm of your hand. Make sure that you don’t make the meatballs too large, so they cook evenly.
- Place each meatball onto a lined baking sheet.
- Bake at 400 for 16 minutes.
- Prepare the buffalo greek yogurt sauce by combining all of the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.
- When meatballs are done cooking, coat each of them in the buffalo sauce.
- Divide the meatballs evenly among your meal prep containers and serve with raw veggies and ranch dressing.
Notes
- Storage: You can store these meatballs in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
- Freezing: These meatballs are great for freezing. Once cooled, store them in a ziploc bag or airtight container and freeze them. They can be kept in the freezer for up to 3 months.
- For easy clean up, line your baking sheet with either parchment paper or foil before placing the meatballs on it. This prevents them from sticking to the sheet and makes for easy removal.
