Chicken Balls

Aside from the strange name, these really are good! Yet another fabulous recipe my mom often cooked growing up, these require simple ingredients and are easy to throw together for a quick meal. The balls are soft and cheesy on the inside, and are served with a chicken gravy that can be thrown together from a can or from homemade chicken broth. These frequent our dinner table at least once a month and my husband requests them more often than that. Picture courtesy of Becky Higgins.
