I MISS THE BLUE PARROT MEATBALLS

Steps:

• Random Advice: If your raw meatballs are ugly and not perfectly round - they will NOT look any better after you cook them. I was hoping they would magically look perfect after baking - but they don't -- Still ugly. Shape your meatballs with care. Don't worry - the sauce will cover them!
• Line your baking sheet with foil for easy clean up.
• I don't like to touch raw meat - so I wear two sandwich baggies on my hands when rolling balls since I don't have plastic kitchen gloves. We also use a potato masher to mix up everything. I know hands work better - but I just won't touch it. I don't like other people touching my food either -- just sayin!
• You can cry a little about your delicious meatballs -- now go and enjoy!

BUFFALO CHICKEN MEATBALLS WITH BLUE CHEESE SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Coat two large, rimmed baking sheets with nonstick cooking spray.
• For the Blue Cheese Sauce: Stir together the blue cheese, buttermilk, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon juice and garlic powder in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• For the meatballs: Pulse the celery, onion and bell pepper in a food processor until finely minced. Combine the minced vegetables with the ground chicken, breadcrumbs, egg and House Seasoning (see recipe below) in a large bowl. Shape the mixture into 48 1-inch meatballs and place 1 inch apart on the prepared baking sheets. Bake until the meatballs begin to brown, about 10 minutes. Turn the meatballs. Cook until the meatballs are browned and cooked through, about 10 more minutes.
• While the meatballs bake, combine the butter, hot sauce and Worcestershire sauce in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the butter is melted. Add the cooked meatballs to the saucepan and turn to coat. Cover and keep warm until ready to serve. Serve the meatballs with the blue cheese sauce, celery sticks and sprinkle with parsley.
• Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, sweet paprika, pepper and salt in a small bowl. Store in an airtight container.
