Sausageappetizer Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine jelly, barbecue sauce and mustard. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat until blended, 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. Stir in sausages; cook, covered, until heated through, about 5 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat; mist with cooking spray. Add the sausage; cook, turning 2 or 3 times, until warmed through and browned, about 8 minutes.
• Thread 1 small or 1/2 large basil leaf onto a small wooden skewer. Add a piece of roasted red pepper, sun-dried tomato, artichoke and sausage, arranging them on the skewer so that it can stand up on the sausage end. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make about two-dozen skewers.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick cooking spray and keep nearby.
• Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms, onion, and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, over medium heat, until the mushroom mixture is very tender, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat. Stir in the turkey, cream cheese, and Cheddar until well blended.
• Place 1 sheet of phyllo with the short side facing you on a work surface. (Cover remaining phyllo with plastic wrap to keep from drying out.) Spray the phyllo sheet with nonstick cooking spray. Then fold it in half lengthwise and spray again. Place 1 heaping tablespoon filling in the center of the bottom end of the phyllo. Fold in the sides, then roll up from the bottom to completely enclose the filling (it should look like an egg roll). Place the roll, seam-side down, on the baking sheet. Repeat with remaining phyllo sheets, nonstick cooking spray, and filling to make a total of 16 rolls.
• Spray the rolls generously with nonstick cooking spray and bake until the rolls until lightly golden, about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Place sausage and Worcestershire sauce in a bowl.
• Mix thoroughly.
• Cut each piece of crescent dinner roll dough in half croswise.
• Using a teaspoon, place between a half and a third of a teaspoon of sausage in the center of each piece of dough.
• Fold the dough up around the sausage. It is okay if there are spaces on the sides of the dough.
• Bake according to the directions on the crescent roll package.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees. In a large bowl mix together the sausage, basil, oregano, thyme, and salt and pepper to taste until all the seasonings are well distributed throughout.
• Roll out all the puff pastry into one large rectangle about 1/8 inch thick. Put the wide side of the rectangle to your left. Form the sausage meat into a log about 1 inch thick and long enough to fit the width of the pastry. Lay this log along the whole edge. Roll the pastry around the sausage, brush with beaten eggs at the join, and cut so that the pastry has just enough room to slightly overlap. Repeat the process with the remaining sausage meat and pastry. Line up all the sausage rolls making sure the seam on each is at the bottom and not showing. Brush the tops with the eggs and cut the sausage rolls into either 1 1/2-or 3-inch logs.
• Spread about one inch apart on a baking sheet, and bake until golden brown and the meat is cooked, about 15 to 20 minutes. You can also freeze the rolls to be cooked later. Serve warm or cold.

Steps:

• Remove stems from mushrooms and discard; set mushroom caps aside.
• In a mixing bowl, mix together the remaining ingredients.

• Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 16-20 minutes or until heated through.

Steps:

• Place mixture on rye bread. Place on cookie sheet.
• Bake at 350°F until bottom of bread is toasted.
