Mexican Chicken Meatballs (by Dessert Diva)

These are a terrific substitute for traditional, high fat meatballs. You can serve them with salsa or plain. For Supper Club, I made 3 batches of these meatballs, then I scored the mixture into 6 sections. Each Diva got one section and could make as many meatballs out of it as possible.
