## **Tips for the Best Sausage Balls**
✔ **Use Freshly Shredded Cheese** – Pre-shredded cheese has anti-caking agents that can affect texture.
✔ **Don’t Overmix** – Mix just until combined to keep them tender.
✔ **Make Ahead & Freeze** – Roll the balls and freeze them **uncooked**. When ready to bake, cook from frozen, adding a few extra minutes.
✔ **Drain the Rotel Well** – Too much liquid will make the mixture too wet to roll properly.
