This Keto Sausage Balls recipe is a family favorite and we make them all the time, but especially around the holidays. We know you will love these as much as we do, which is why we had to share them with you.
This Christmas will be the second year that we have to face the holiday without my mother in law. Beverly was like a mom to me and this time of year is bittersweet. One of the things I loved about the holidays was her cooking. She would make the most wonderful and delicious foods. She had a few traditional foods that she made every year (foods that were not a tradition for me growing up).

Keto Sausage Balls Recipe:
I will never forget how excited I would get every year when I would go into her home and realize that she had made me my very own dish of pistachio salad. Much like the peanut butter balls, pig pickin’ cake, and sausage balls I had never had any of these dishes for Christmas until she came into my life. I only had pistachio salad when she would make it for me so every year I would forget about it, but she always remembered.
Bev is one of the most beautiful and amazing women I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. Today this keto sausage ball recipe is in memory of her.
