Man, I didn't do much today...but I -did- get a couple batches of Cheese and Sausage balls mixed up for tomorrow. Whee!

that sounds like a level of delicious that causes bad karma.

What are they and how do you make them?

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Just what it says on the tin, really.

Ingredients:

1 lb. hot uncased sausage
1 lb. (16 oz) of shredded sharp cheddar cheese
3 c. of bisquik

Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees.

Combine ingredients in a food processor (or by hand, but it takes a good while to get it mixed up well), then form into walnut sized balls. Place on a cookie sheet. Bake for 10-15 minutes at 400 and serve.

(I usually just go for the full 15 minutes)

The 'dough' keeps just fine in the fridge or freezer if you want to make it up in advance and then cook them just before your party/potluck/whatever.

is the sausage cooked or raw?

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Raw, but it cooks up quite thoroughly when you bake the balls.

Balls...

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Would you like to try out my balls, sir?

[flying-landon.livejournal.com]

Are they salty?

[ls56.livejournal.com]

are they chocolate?

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Yes, and no, in that order.

[flying-landon.livejournal.com]

salty vanilla balls then, eh? Yes, I'll suckle on them a bit.

[las.livejournal.com]

Mmm, cheesy sausage balls.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

They're fantastic!

[jennekirby.livejournal.com]

Oh God, that sounds delicious.

I suspect I am hungry and haven't eaten enough protein today based on how badly I want to eat those right now.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

They are -quite- tasty.

You could always clout Phil over the head, steal the keys, go grab the ingredients from the store, and be snacking mightily before he wakes up.

(Or ask if he wants to go too, but then you'd probably have to share.)

[jennekirby.livejournal.com]

Heee. Instead I ate dinner, but that would be tempting otherwise. (Minus hitting Phil on the head. Due to my being lactose intolerant and without a gallbladder, I really could only eat a few of these anyway.)

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Well, there's always lactaid, but true!

At least you got fed. :D

[jennekirby.livejournal.com]

I have a weird aversion to lactaid. I suspect it is the whole white pill thing. (It doesn't have TiO2 in it, but I just... think it should, or something.) And it doesn't help the lack of ability to process that much meat/milk fat, sadly. (I do not miss the gallbladder at all though.)

Ahhh. Alex swears by it (being Asian and a dedicated foe of Dr. Lactopus himself), so I kinda figured it was a cure all.

[jennekirby.livejournal.com]

Heehee... lactopus.

Yeah, it works well for that, my problems are just... more fundamental. Also I'm irrational.

Does being Asian have something to do with being lactose intolerant? Because if it does, that and my horrible awful flushing upon drinking certain types of alcohol are about to convince me that I am secretly Asian.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Yeah, the Asian population in general doesn't do well with Lactase.

Or as Alex puts it, "When was the last time you heard of a good Chinese fromage?"

Secret -ASIAN- man!

[jennekirby.livejournal.com]

Man... when I was in sixth grade I remember thinking I'd be so very much cooler (and better-looking, etc.) if I were Asian. I even came up with an alter ego who was half-Asian (her name was Kirby, thus the username...). I guess I got my sixth grade wish... except only in my digestive tract.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

As wishes are wont to do.

Might want to check out the two articles on the Jacket's in Today's Dispatch. Basically they said "It's time to get on the Bandwagon", and an analysis of the Jackets play.

BTW, I'm on call this week, so I think I'll have to watch my hockey from home. Still hoping to make the game tomorrow though.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

*grins* I read that. I'm hoping it sticks.

Not a problem - want to swing by here around 5-ish and we can carpool to the RBar?

[flaggerx.livejournal.com]

I'd like to, but i'm still on call and thus might need to beat a hasty departure.

[bzarcher.livejournal.com]

Ahh, right, then.

Hopefully see you down there. :D
