Instructions

Preheat oven to 425 degrees and line baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a mixing bowl, using an electric mixer, mix together all ingredients until well-combined.
Roll the sausage balls into 24 equal-sized balls and place atop prepared baking sheet.
Transfer baking sheet to oven and bake until internal temperature of sausage balls reaches 160 degrees, about 13-15 minutes.
Remove baking sheet from oven and, optionally, garnish with fresh parsley.

Recipe Notes:

Weight Of Each Sausage Ball Before Being Baked: I measured each of the sausage balls when rolling them and before baking them. The total mixture weighed ~735g and each ball was ~30g.
