These are great! I use sharp cheese for a little zing and add scrambled eggs. The kids just nuke 'em and go.

I was really looking forward to making these because of all the good reviews, followed the directions exactly, but found them to be more of a tasteless bread ball than a meaty sausage ball. Three boys in my house who will normally eat anything would not eat many of these.

This was a big hit at a family get together. I have allergies and cannot have spicy foods so I use turkey breakfast sausage, garlic powder, sage, turmeric, and onion powder to give them a bit of flavor. This recipe makes 40 for me. I make them as appetizers but they are a main staple in our family gatherings right next to corn casserole!
