Notes

  • Tip 1: If you are serving a larger crowd, I recommend doubling the meatballs and dip.
  • Tip 2: This recipe tends to serve 5 to 6 people as an appetizer.
  • Tip 3: To keep these warm, simply add fully cooked meatballs with about ½ cup buffalo sauce to a slow cooker.
  • Tip 4: I love serving with toothpicks for easy snacking!
