SPICY CRANBERRY SAUSAGE BALLS
Add some sweet/spicy flair to your appetizer spread! These zippy sausage balls use bulk Italian pork or turkey sausage and dried cranberries to use on a party buffet spread, or for watching the game. I just love finger foods that are just a bite or two, and these fill the bill. Add some extra heat with optional red pepper flakes, or dial down the heat and use sweet Italian sausage instead of the hot, if you prefer. Either way, you will enjoy the tangy sweetness the cranberries bring!

SPICY HOT SAUSAGE BALLS
Can't remember where I got this. But it's a really fun and easy recipe, a great appetizer for most any occasion. It is important you use packaged sausage and not meat counter sausage (I used Jimmy Dean brand) because the consistency is not the same.

SPICY SAUSAGE BALLS
This is Seth's take on sausage balls. He took a class his senior year called "Home and Family Living". We all had a good laugh when he had to carry his squalling baby doll around for a weekend. Linzi even videoed him asleep on the couch holding the bottle in the dolls mouth. Another thing they had to do was prepare a recipe, and...
