INGREDIENTS
2 tablespoons concentrated orange juice
2 tablespoons maple syrup
4 slices of bread
1 egg, slightly beaten
½ lb mild bulk sausage
½ c chopped roasted pecans
2 tablespoons parsley flakes
DIRECTIONS
Break up bread in orange juice and maple syrup. Add egg and mix thoroughly. Blend in remaining ingredients. Make into small sausage balls about 1 inch in diameter or into patties. Fry slowly in a skillet or griddle over medium heat until browned. May be served as an hors d’oeuvre or accompaniment to macaroni for a family supper. Can be made ahead and frozen after cooking. Reheat in a warm oven before serving. Makes 4 to 6 patties, or 12 to 16 sausage balls.

Wow, great blog you have here. I found your site while looking for another one on about.com. I don’t have time to read all the articles here right now, but I have bookmarked this site and will come back very soon to see your latest updates. I love reading about cooking, it is my favorite past-time. The recipes on your site are incredible. I can’t wait to try them out on my family. They think I’m nuts (and maybe they are right lol) when they see me at work in the kitchen. Click here if you’d like to check out my site. Thank you again for a really nice site. Have a great week!
