MINI CHEESY SAUSAGE CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Set out the frozen phyllo cups to thaw a bit while you're making the filling.

• Add the cream cheese to the browned sausage and stir until the cream cheese is melted and combined into the sausage.
• Add the garlic salt, pepper, and shredded cheese and stir until combined and melted. Add the Rotel and stir to until thickened and hot, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.

SAVORY SAUSAGE CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Add sausage to a frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook and stir with a spatula, breaking apart the sausage until cooked, 5 to 7 minutes. Drain and let cool.
• Combine regular and vegetable cream cheese, Cheddar cheese, bell pepper, green onion, and cooled, crumbled sausage in a bowl. Mix well and set aside.
• Unroll 1 crescent dough sheet and press into a 9x12-inch rectangle. Cut 6 rows across and 4 rows vertically to yield 24 squares. Repeat with the second package of dough.
• Place 1 square in each cup of two nonstick 24-cup mini muffin tins, pressing it into the bottom and up the sides.
• Drop 1 heaping teaspoon of sausage filling into each cup. Filling should be up to the top of the cup, but you do not need to press it down.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the dough is golden brown, 11 to 13 minutes.
• Cool for 5 minutes in the tins before removing to a platter.

CHEESY SAUSAGE-STUFFED MINI PEPPERS

• To the same pan, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and reduce heat to medium. Add diced mushrooms and saute for about 5 minutes, until mushrooms are softened and brown.
• In a bowl, mix the sausage and mushrooms with the rice and parsley, and 1/2 cup of the mozzarella. Season to taste, and fill each bell pepper halfway with the mixture.
