 Sausage Balls with Cranberry-Green Chile Sauce

A southern favorite sausage balls are a fan favorite at our holiday table. The kids love them, the men request them and I relish in that I can make them in advance, freeze them and bake them off before the guest arrive. I decided to revamp my original recipe, add a little tang from the addition of taco seasoning from the fine folks over at Old El Paso and serve them up with a rich cranberry green-chile sauce.

Easy to make sausage balls have been a crowd pleaser for a reason, they are delicious.  I like to double the recipe one batch for my guests and the second to add to a steaming pot of soup the following week for dinner.

    Vianney, you recipe for the meatballs sounds great. I like the idea of using cranberries; I love their tart taste. Great idea. Thanks for posting.
