Ingredients
1 lb breakfast sausage (mild or spicy)
2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1 can (10 oz) Rotel diced tomatoes with green chilies, well drained
1 ½ cups Bisquick baking mix
½ tsp garlic powder (optional)
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a large bowl, combine sausage, cheddar cheese, drained Rotel, Bisquick, and garlic powder.
Mix well using your hands until fully combined.
Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place onto the prepared baking sheet.
Bake 20–25 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Let cool slightly and serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
Notes
Drain Rotel very well to avoid excess moisture.
Add chopped green onions or jalapeños for extra flavor.
Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 4 days or freeze up to 3 months.
Reheat in the oven or air fryer for best texture.
