Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb pork breakfast sausage Mild or hot, depending on preference.
  • 1 box Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix Check ounces as brands vary.
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese Sharp cheddar is best; freshly shredded melts creamier.
  • 1 splash milk Any type of milk works, even almond milk.
Optional Add-Ins
  • 1 pinch garlic powder For extra flavor.
  • 1 tbsp chopped green onion Optional.
  • 1 shake smoked paprika Optional.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the pork breakfast sausage, Red Lobster biscuit mix, and shredded cheddar cheese.
  3. Add a splash of milk and mix until there are no dry pockets of biscuit mix.
  4. Scoop and roll the mixture into balls about 1 to 1.5 inches in size.
Baking
  1. Place the balls on the lined baking sheet with space between each one.
  2. Bake for about 18 to 22 minutes, until nicely browned and cooked through.
  3. Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

Make ahead by rolling the balls and refrigerating for a few hours or freeze uncooked balls and bake from frozen, adding a few extra minutes of cook time. Serve with dips like honey mustard, ranch, spicy mayo, or warm queso.
