Turkey Sausage Cheese Balls

livebetteramerica.com

This this is a traditional , southern style appetizer.  It is something you could eat at breakfast/brunch or as an afternoon appetizer.  This is a bit healthier version since it uses the Bisquick Heart Smart mix and turkey sausage.

2 1/2 cups Bisquick Heart Smart mix
1 lb uncooked turkey sausage
3 cups shredded reduced fat cheddar cheese (12 oz)
1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp dried rosemary leaves, crushed
1 1/2 tsp chopped fresh parsley or 1/2 tsp parsley flakes
       BBQ sauce or chili sauce if desired

  • Heat oven to 350.  Lightly grease bottom and sides of 15 x 10 x 1 inch pan
  • In large bowl, stir together all ingredients except BBQ sauce, using hands or spoon.  Shape mixture into 1 inch balls.  Place in pan.
  • Bake 20 - 25 minutes or until brown and thermometer inserted in center of all reads at least 165F. Immediately remove from pan.  Serve warm with sauce for dipping.
  • Makes 8 1/2 dozen balls

Tupps Tidbits ~  use a small cookie scoop/ice cream scoop to form balls

Well there comes a time every so often that we do not come to the same conclusion on a recipe. Tupps thinks these are a KEEPER and I think YUCK YUCK YUCK, they were horrible and NOT A KEEPER.   So I guess you will have to try them yourself to decide if they are a KEEPER in your house! HA!
