Mini Pizzas with Buffalo Balls


Snack number two for my husband's birthday poker night came out late night, and was gone before I could set the platter down. This may become our Friday night pizza night dinner. There are two recipes here, one for mini pizzas and one for buffalo balls...both found on Pinterest. Enjoy!



Mini Tortilla Pizzas

Ingredients:
3-4 tortillas (I used tomato basil tortillas)
1 jar of pizza sauce
3/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
approximately 50 mini pepperonis

Directions:
1.  Preheat the oven to 425

2. Cut 24 circles out of the tortillas using a biscuit cutter

3. Press the tortillas into a non-stick muffin tin...they only need to be pushed down a bit

4. Place a spoonful of sauce, a spoonful of cheese and top with 4 pepperonis

5. Place in oven and bake for 12 minutes. Let cool for a few minutes and then pop out and place on platter

Buffalo Balls

Ingredients:
Buffalo Balls
1lb lean ground beef
2 oz cream cheese, softened
2 eggs
2 Tbl chopped celery
3 Tbl crumbled Feta
1/2 tsp black pepper

For the Sauce
1/2 stick (4 oz) unsalted butter
1/2 cup Frank’s Red Hot

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350

 2. Combine all the ingredients (not sauce ingredients) in a bowl and mix well.

3. Shape into bite size meatballs and place on a non-stick baking sheet

4. Place in oven and bake for 10 minutes. Meanwhile heat the sauce and butter in a small saucepan until butter melts. Remove meatballs and gently dip into sauce and place back on baking sheet.

5. Bake for another 12 minutes. Remove and dip again. Turn the oven to broil and place buffalo balls back in so they crisp up, about 2-3 minutes. Remove and drizzle with Ranch. Enjoy!
