These sausage balls are so quick and easy to make, plus they taste amazing!
I get tired of eggs and yogurt, my typical go-tos for breakfast. I like to have things that I can make ahead of time and eat throughout the week. I also need portable as well. Since my hubby is a truck driver, things that he can take and eat while he is driving are also important when it comes to meal prep. These were perfect!!
These are so easy, your kids can make them.
You can have everything measured out for them. You dump everything in a bowl, mix, and shape. Nothing complicated with this recipe. You can also freeze these. I mentioned before that I used to be big in the once a month cooking scene. These low carb sausage balls are a remake of ones I used to freeze. These would be perfect to make a double batch and freeze the extras. The hot sauce is optional and you can add more if you like it hotter. Make these for your family and I am sure they will be a hit.
Use various kinds of sausage and dips
I have made this recipe using Italian sausage, mozzarella cheese, and marinara sauce for dipping. Use spicy sausage and spicy ranch. There are so many options. And don’t keep these just for breakfast. These are great for snacks and appetizers! And no one will know they are low carb.

I have made these numerous times for my family and church events. Everyone loves them and they dissappear quickly.
