These Low FODMAP Buffalo Turkey Quinoa Meatballs are high in protein, spicy and sassy. The recipe calls for a low FODMAP Buffalo Wing Sauce, like Texas Pete’s Buffalo Wing sauce (without garlic). If you can’t find one suitable, you can make your own homemade Buffalo Wing Sauce in the Sauce & Others section.
Feel free to reduce the amount of sauce to lessen the heat. It’s easiest to cook in a slow cooker but you can use a regular stockpot over very low heat.
You can serve these with a side salad or some steamed spinach for a healthy and well-balanced meal.
