6 servings
6 meatballs per serving
177 calories per serving

1 lb ground chicken
1/4 c Egg Beaters
1/2 c minced celery
1/2 c breadcrumbs
1/3 c Frank’s Buffalo Sauce (or your favorite brand)
salt and pepper to taste
1/2 t oregano
1/2 t garlic powder
1/2 t onion powder
Pam
2 T butter
2 T flour
1 c chicken or beef stock
1/4 c Frank’s Buffalo Sauce (or your favorite brand)

Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Mix meat, egg beaters, breadcrumbs, 1/3 c sauce, salt, pepper, oregano, garlic powder and onion powder. Spray a baking sheet with Pam. Make 36 small cocktail sized meatballs and place on a baking sheet with the sides all touching (this helps retain moisture in the meatballs as they cook). Bake 15-20 minutes or until done. While they are cooking melt butter in a small saucepan and then add flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring the entire time. Add stock and simmer 3 minutes. Add 1/4 c buffalo sauce, salt and pepper and simmer 1 minute. Serve this sauce over the meatballs or on the side as a dipping sauce.

Add some celery and carrot stix and some low fat blue cheese dressing on the side.
