Sausage Balls


Moist and Yummy Sausage Balls!

Ingredients:
1 lb sausage, uncooked 
8 oz cream cheese, softened 
1 1/4 cups Bisquick
4 oz cheddar cheese, shredded 

Preheat oven to 400F. 
Mix all ingredients until well combined. 
Roll into 1" balls and place on baking sheet.
Bake for 20-25 minutes.

You can freeze these, uncooked, but you will need to add a few minutes to the cooking time.  Enjoy!

J-E-L-L-O Cake!



Jello Cake

This little treat is a holiday favorite.  This picture here is cherry and lime for Christmas, but have fun mixing and matching flavors!  (Think Strawberry and Blue Raspberry for July 4th!)


Wontons aka Crab Rangoon

I don't mean to toot my own horn here, but I make awesome homemade Chinese food. My egg rolls are in another post (check them out!) This time I present wantons. Fast. Easy. Yummy. Need I say more?

8 ounces cream cheese
8 ounces fresh, flaked crab meat (can be imitation)

1/2 teaspoon  Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce
1-2 green onions, finely sliced
1 large clove garlic, smashed, peeled, and finely minced (I keep a jar of crushed in the fridge & eyeball it.)
1 package won ton wrappers
1 small bowl with whisked egg
Oil for deep-frying, as needed (we use the deep fryer)

Assembly:
Mix first 5 ingredients.
Place small spoonful into center of won ton.
Brush egg on edges.
Fold and Seal

Cooking:
These little treats are delicious when fried.  (Imagine that... A southern woman liking fried foods.)
We fried ours up in the deep fryer until they are golden brown.

Serve with sweet and sour!
