Notes
While any variety of stove top stuffing mix will work our favorites include: chicken, pork, or the sage flavors. Use a quality sausage and quality cheese for this appetizer since those are the primary flavors that will shine through. Don't forget to cover your baking pan with parchment paper! It makes cleanup easier and keeps the sausage balls from sticking to the pan.
