Ingredients

  • FOR THE SAUSAGE BALLS:
  • 1 pound Bulk Hot Italian Sausage
  • 8 ounces, weight Sharp Cheddar Cheese, Grated
  • 2 cups Bisquick Baking Mix
  • 2 whole Eggs
  • ½ cups Sliced Scallions
  • ½ cups Roughly Chopped Cilantro
  • 1 pinch Cayenne Pepper
  • FOR THE DIPPING SAUCE:
  • 1 cup Mayonnaise (I Used A Canola Based)
  • 2 whole Chipotle Peppers From A Can
  • 2 Tablespoons Adobo Sauce, From The Can
  • 2 Tablespoons Lime Juice

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

Dump the sausage, cheese, baking mix, eggs, scallions, cilantro and cayenne pepper into a large bowl. Mix with your hands until fully combined.

Using your hands, roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and arrange them on a foil-lined baking sheet.

Put the baking sheet into the preheated oven and bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the oven. Let the sausage balls cool 2 minutes before peeling them away from the foil.

For the dipping sauce:
In a food processor combine the mayonnaise, 2 chipotle peppers, the adobo sauce and lime juice. Blitz until fully combined and smooth.

Serve sausage balls with dipping sauce.

I didn’t have to add an egg. I used the heart healthy bisquick. They are better than the Paula Deen balls, and I love that there’s a sauce to go with it.

I used my tablespoon scoop and somehow ended up with 50 balls, but I considered this a bonus. I also had to add an additional egg to bind everything, but no biggie there. Yummy finger food. I’m making them again for Superbowl.

I made this last night and it was a huge hit! I served it with a vegetarian tortellini soup. For some reason my mixture was so dry I had to add an extra egg to get it to mix together well. I would also second making the dipping sauce the day before to let the flavors meld together. We had the leftovers for lunch today and it was very good, even better I daresay! Thanks for the yummy recipe!
