Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork sausage (mild or spicy, depending on your preference)
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened (at room temperature, for creaminess)
- 1 (10-ounce) can Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies, drained well (for a zesty, spicy kick)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (sharp cheddar recommended for extra flavor)
- 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour (for binding the mixture together)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (for added flavor)
- ½ teaspoon salt (for seasoning)
- ½ teaspoon black pepper (for seasoning)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it to prevent the sausage balls from sticking.
- Prepare the sausage mixture: In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork sausage, softened cream cheese, and the drained Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies. Mix until the cream cheese is fully incorporated with the sausage and the tomatoes are evenly distributed throughout the mixture. The cream cheese will help bind the ingredients and add a creamy texture to the sausage balls.
- Add the cheese and seasonings:
