These perfectly pop-able meatballs are a yummy mixture of savory ranch and spicy sriracha. They feature Naturally Fresh® Classic Ranch, part of a line of high-quality, homemade-tasting salad dressings and dips. Many foods we find of store shelves are full of artificial flavors and colors, but Naturally Fresh® refrigerated dressings are different! I picked it up in the refrigerator section of my local Publix and was happy to learn that Naturally Fresh does not use artificial thickeners, (MSG), artificial preservatives or artificial colors or flavors! (That’s why you’ll only find Naturally Fresh® products in the refrigerated section.) Instead, Naturally Fresh® puts real ingredients in their products – and you can taste the difference.

Those meatballs sound really easy and so flavorful. I'm not much of a football person, I learned more about the Superbowl from your post than I knew about it before!
