This Sausage Ball Recipe is Better Than Any I've Tried!!!

cream cheese

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: sour cream

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheese

💰Cheaper: colby cheese

Colby cheese is often less expensive and melts well.

bisquick

🥗Healthier: homemade biscuit mix

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour + baking powder

Homemade mix can be more cost-effective.

sausage

🥗Healthier: turkey sausage

💰Cheaper: pork sausage

Turkey sausage is leaner but may be more expensive.

Preheat the pellet grill to about 376°F.

In a stand mixer, combine the entire packet of cheddar bay biscuit mix with one block of softened cream cheese.

Add 1 pound of breakfast sausage to the mixer.

Incorporate 1.25 cups of shredded cheese into the mixture.

Add optional ingredients: 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, and 1 tablespoon of chicken powder.

Mix on low speed until all ingredients are well combined, scraping down the sides as necessary.

Use a cookie scoop to portion out the mixture onto a greased baking sheet.

Shape the mixture into balls and place them on the baking sheet.

Place the baking sheet in the preheated pellet grill and set a timer for 10 minutes.

After 10 minutes, check the internal temperature of the sausage balls with an instant-read thermometer.

If the temperature is not at least 200°F, continue cooking for an additional 5-7 minutes, checking periodically.

Prepare a honey mustard sauce by mixing together 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons yellow mustard, 1 teaspoon dijon mustard, 2 tablespoons honey, and 1/2 tablespoon lemon juice.

After cooking for about 20 minutes total, remove the sausage balls from the grill and let them rest for 5 minutes before serving.
