Last week for the boys first day of school, I wanted to fix one of their favorite meals, appetizers. I usually serve appetizers at least once a month, they’re fun, and most of the time pretty easy too. This time we had an old standby, Sausage Cheese Balls and a new recipe, that I’ll share soon, Cheesy Bacon Crescents. I had a request on Twitter for the Sausage Cheese Ball recipe, checked and realized that I had never shared it with you. Guess I better do that…
Ingredients
- 1 pound sausage (I use just regular breakfast sausage, any will do, whatever you like)
- 1 pound sharp cheddar cheese, grated (again, any will do)
- 3 cups Biscuit mix (Bisquick, Jiffy or even Aldi’s brand is fine)
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup water
Instructions
- Mix all ingredients well. Form into balls and place onto greased cookie sheet. Bake at 375 degrees for about 10 – 15 minutes until golden brown.
- This recipe makes about 30 – 40 balls, you can easily divide it in half.
Since these were part of our Back to School day, I thought I would share a picture of the boys, our oldest is going to college, so he’s not in this picture.
Here is Our Menu Plan for the rest of the week…
Monday ~ Sloppy Joes, Pretzels and Fruit
Tuesday ~ Meatballs in Gravy, Mashed Potato Casserole, Green Beans
Wednesday ~ Taco Roll-ups (Once A Month Mom), Chips and Salsa
Thursday ~ Breakfast for Dinner, Homemade McGriddles, and Fruit
Friday ~ Chicken Chimichangas, Roasted Corn Salsa, Chips and Salsa
Saturday ~ Chef Salad and Homemade Bread
Sunday ~ Chicken N’ Noodles, Mashed Potatoes, Corn
Since I’ll be at Baking with Betty on Monday and Tuesday, I had to switch a couple meals around from my original August Menu Plan. But that’s the beauty of menu planning.
Don’t forget! Cupcake Tuesday is tomorrow, come see all the amazing cupcake ideas, our Cupcake Challenge is going on right now too! Join the fun! It’s not too late! AND, I have a Flip Ultra Video Camera for the winner!! Plus giveaways each week.

Also just to clarify the above is the sausage precooked before you mix it all up and bake? Or does it go in uncooked? thanks

@even-star, Sorry…just saw this comment. The sausage is uncooked.
Thanks for asking!

I love sausage cheese balls! It’s so simple and very tasty. Your meal plan looks great this week.
Great looking boys! I bet they can burn off sausage and cheese balls – no problem!
Mmmmm I love Sauasage Cheese Balls! I make them all the time and you have to dip them into ranch! So evil of me, but oh so good!
Happy Back to School:-)
