Bisquick Sausage Balls
These Bisquick sausage balls are made with Neese's sausage and are perfect for breakfast, especially during the holidays. I have provided the doubled recipe, but you can cut it in half if you wish. I like to bake half the batch and freeze the remaining in a resealable plastic bag for another day. This recipes works great in a toaster oven, too.
