Angie’s Buffalo Chicken Balls

Alrighty, usually I’m all about fast and easy recipes and out the door. Not this time.
This is a great sit around the table and talk about your day recipe! It was a big hit with kids and husband alike, but I’m not so sure about the 2 year old. She just wanted to suck the dressing off. I wonder if she would have eaten them if she hadn’t had the dressing first. (Trying that tactic next time.) It’s just so much fun to dip things though! I think that is one of the reasons this goes over so well with kids.
I love recipes that use salad dressing or BBQ sauce, because with coupons and sales, you get those items practically free. Yay for free!
Generally the kids had 1-2 balls each, but Liza, my 4 year old had about 5! I don’t know how she didn’t pop!
