Like I mentioned earlier, I've been craving the added spice and hoping it helps jump start my weight loss even further.

Sriracha and Lime Turkey Meatballs

How do you make Sriracha and Lime Turkey Meatballs?

When making this recipe, I used 99% fat free ground turkey, Sriracha hot sauce, fresh lime juice, parsley, and garlic. For the sauce, I used mayonnaise, nonfat Greek yogurt, lime juice and Sriracha.

I really loved the way the fresh, light flavor of the lime juice complimented the hot, tangy hot sauce. When using Sriracha, start off with a smaller amount than adjust amounts accordingly.

Especially if children will be eating these as well. I found the measurements I used to be perfect without being too overpowering. ~Enjoy!
