Man Of Many Talents

Besides being a HUGE computer nerd guru I betcha didn't know Chris had other talents. Like for instance, he makes a mad good sausage ball. That's right he got in the kitchen a few days ago and whipped up some sausage balls to take to work because they were having a pot luck. No pots were involved in this recipe though. Here, it's easy...

Sausage Balls

What you need:

1lb sausage (any flavor you like)
12 oz shredded cheese (he used cheddar)
2 cups Pioneer Baking Mix
1/4 cup of milk (decided at the last minute he needed moisture)

To begin, Chris sat the sausage and cheese out so that the chill would go away. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Dump everything into the bowl.

Dig in, literally, mix everything until combined.

Mix until it looks like this-


Next, roll sausage mixture into balls. As big or little as you want. Chris got about 63 out of this recipe.


Have a snack while your boyfriend gets dirty in the kitchen. Oh, wait I mean make your boyfriend a snack.

Throw the sausage balls onto a baking sheet. He just did two batches instead of crowding the oven.

Now put them in the oven for about 20 minutes. They only brown a little so to be sure they are done just sneak one and tear it open to make sure the sausage is cooked thoroughly.  You should put them in the refigerator if you're not eating them right away. The very last thing you do is take a picture at a totally weird, random, crazy angle to show off your work. This picture in no way lets you know how they are supposed to look when they are done. Way to go Chris.


That's it. I didn't eat any of them. I stabbed them with some toothpicks, threw them in a container and he took them to work. He said everyone liked them. Good job Chris. Whatcha making me for dinner tonight?

I LOVE banana bread. Chris hates it. I have to throw half the loaf away or give it away... But YUM I have bananas I need to use right now!
