Southwestern Breakfast Meatballs

1 pound pork or beef breakfast sausage of your choosing (see notes in post)

1 clove garlic, minced OR ½ tsp garlic powder (more if you’re using sausage or pork that doesn’t have any garlic already added)

Half a yellow onion, small diced

½ C red, orange or yellow bell peppers, small diced (preferably organic)

1 Tbs fresh sage, chopped

2 tsp chili powder

½ tsp freshly cracked black pepper

NO salt

2 tsp Worcestershire sauce**

⅓ C sharp cheddar cheese, grated (optional)

note: *when choosing a good Worcestershire sauce always read the label. Look for something organic, if possible. That way, if there is any soy in it, it won’t be from a GMO crop.

subheading: Fanci-fy it:

Add in about ⅓ C diced chipotle peppers (from a jar) in place of the fresh ones for even more southwestern flavor!

For even more spice add 1 minced jalapeno.

You can chop and mix your cilantro right into the meatball mixture if you don’t want to use it for garnish. If you love cilantro as much as my husband does, though, you may just mix it in and put it on top!
