1 lb. sausage (hot or mild)
1/4 cup water or chicken broth
1/4 tsp. ground sage or Bell's Seasoning (optional)
1 onion, finely minced
2 cloves garlic, pressed
1/2 to 1 tsp. salt & pepper
1/4 tsp. thyme
1/2 tsp. each onion and garlic powder
10 oz. cheddar cheese
3 cups Bisquick

In a skillet over low heat, break up sausage meat and simmer with 1/4 cup chicken broth, sage, 1 chopped onion and minced garlic until sausage is no longer pink, stirring often (about 15-20 minutes). Do not brown. Season to taste with salt, pepper, thyme, onion and garlic powder. Let cool for 10 minutes. Do not drain.

In a large bowl combine meat mixture with cheddar cheese and Bisquick. Roll into 1-inch balls.

Place on an ungreased, foil lined cookie sheet and bake at 375°F for 12 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
