Ingredients

  • 1 lb ground 99% lean ground turkey or chicken
  • 1 egg
  • 3 medium zucchini shredded (3 cups)
  • 1 cup oat flour
  • cup buffalo sauce

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 375F. Line a large baking sheet with heavy duty foil and spray with cooking spray.
  • Shred zucchini by hand or using the food processor shredded attachment, then squeeze dry of excess water. (I use a dish towel and then wash it, or sometimes I use paper towels.) Really, try to get as much moisture out as possible.
  • Combine ingredients in a large bowl.
  • Make meatballs about the size of 2 tablespoons (I actually used a cookie scoop to measure, but I have separate cookie scoops to keep cross contamination from occurring) and place on large cookie sheet.
  • Bake until set, about 45 minutes. Make sure internal temperature reaches 165F.
