Add some spice to your holiday party with these flavorful, Korean-style meatballs. The combination of quinoa and ground turkey is nutritious and tasty, and the accompanying dipping sauce is out-of-this-world good.

Another great way to eat quinoa with a toothpick, these party-ready bites are full of flavor. Use gluten-free breadcrumbs to make them gluten-free, and serve with a side of blue cheese-Greek yogurt dressing (recipe included) for dipping.
