Party Panache, Pimiento Cheese & Sausage Puffs
This is a twist on an old Southern party favorite,
Bisquick Sausage Balls
Thank you Ricki for telling me about this version!
This combination is great for Christmas
because the red pimientos and green onion pieces
make them look party festive!
You can use prepared pimiento cheese, or make your own here
Because of the Christmas time crunch,
I used Palmetto brand Pimiento Cheese spread
You don’t have to cook the sausage first,
just mix the raw sausage with
Bisquick, pimiento cheese and green onions
If you want to make them spicier,
add jalapenos or use a pimiento cheese spread with jalapeno
You can also use hot sausage to amp up the heat if desired
I don’t recommend using a food processor for this dough
because it doesn’t cook up as light and fluffy…
it’s really best to just roll up your sleeves and mix with your hands
Use a cookie scoop or spoon or just your hands
to form dough into 1 inch balls
You can keep the balls in the refrigerator for up to 3 days,
or you can freeze them for future baking

Oh, those look good! A nice twist of flavor for the tried and true appetizer!
the mayonnaise really makes them moist!
I don’t see mayonnaise in the recipe. These look great. Thank you.
I used Palmetto prepared pimiento cheese which has mayo already in it. There is a recipe for pimiento cheese in the post if you click where it says click here, it will take you too it, and you can make your own pimiento cheese to use in the recipe if you want to. I hope this clears up your question, thanks Judy!
I like pimentos and you don’t see many recipes that call for them these days. I like the sound of this one, Jenna. They look and sound delicious!
so easy and they are always gobbled up!
Jenn, pimiento cheese and green onions are a wonderful twist on the old sausage ball recipe. To this day, I still love this little appetizer. Merry Wednesday!
That was supposed to say Jenna 🤷🏼♀️
Such a great standby recipe that everyone loves!
I know they would be a big hit here! Merry Christmas Jenna:@)
thanks Lynn, Merry Christmas!!
I am making pimiento cheese this afternoon. I wish I had sausage, I would make these for our Christmas Eve. I will definitely add it to my ongoing grocery list and bake these for New Years Eve. Merry Christmas Jenna……..
Thank you Emily! Merry Merry Christmas to you and your family!
These sound like the perfect holiday appetizer Jenna. Wishing you a Merry Christmas.
Thanks Julie, Merry Christmas!
Jenna, I love the idea of adding pimento cheese to this familiar recipe. Pimento cheese is one of my favorites. I think I could eat a pimento cheese sandwich everyday for lunch. Thanks for the recipe! Merry Christmas!
I agree, I love the stuff!!
If it has pimento cheese, I’m going to like it!
Yes, these were a hit!!
Ooh I like this version and have to try! I keep the old stand by version in my freezer ready to pop in and bake 3 or 4 at a time. Merry Christmas!
Yes, I want to make them with my homemade pimiento cheese next time, but the Palmetto worked great and makes them so moist!
Love this festive twist on sausage balls! Thanks, Jenna! 🎄❤️🎄
I haven’t had sausage balls in such a long time! They are a great appetizer and this sounds like a delicious twist on the original recipe. Thanks for sharing it.
thanks Linda, they are more moist than the original version with a little kick!
