SPICY CRANBERRY SAUSAGE BALLS

• Combine cream cheese and Cheddar cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer. Mix on medium speed until blended, about 1 minute. Add sausage in golf ball-size pieces while mixer is running and continue to mix until combined with the cheeses, about 1 minute. Add cranberries, 2 tablespoons parsley, onion powder, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes; continue to mix until well blended, about 2 minutes.
• Stop the mixer and stir in baking mix with a wooden spoon until it is distributed throughout.
• Form 27 golf ball-size sausage balls with your hands or a meatball scoop. Place on the prepared baking sheet, spacing evenly.
• Bake in the preheated oven until nicely browned and no longer pink in the centers, about 30 minutes. Drain on paper towels if necessary. Serve warm garnished with remaining parsley.

SUPER SAUSAGE DIP

Steps:

• In a large skillet, cook the sausage, onion and green pepper over medium heat until meat is no longer pink; drain., Stir in tomatoes and chilies. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally., Add cream cheese; stir until melted. Stir in sour cream; heat through. (Do not boil.) Transfer to a fondue pot and keep warm. Serve with chips.

SUMMER SAUSAGE AND SWISS SPREAD

Steps:

• In food processor, pulse the meat chunks until finely ground with an s blade. Do not over process, just pulse until it resembles ground beef. Place beef in medium mixing bowl, scrape processor and return to base.
• Add Swiss cheese cubes to processor and pulse until pieces are small split pea size. (It helps to have the Swiss cold from the fridge to chop it rather than mush it up.) Scrape chopped Swiss into mixing bowl. Here it is your choice whether to hand chop the celery into fine dice or to use processor to chop. (I chop the celery and finely mince the onion by hand as I think you can hand chop more uniform pieces. And it is very difficult to get a finely minced onion with such a small amount in the processor.)Add chopped celery, onion, sweet relish, and mayo to mixing bowl and combine well. If the meat mixture is too dry, add a little more mayo until desired consistency.
• You can serve the meat mixture by itself, or you can mix in the softened cream cheese and serve at room temperature. This makes a very tasty spread for crackers or crostini, and a good filling for celery sticks, cherry tomatoes or other "Fill-able veggies"
