HIDDEN VALLEY RANCH SAUSAGE STARS



Hidden Valley Ranch Sausage Stars image

These are easy to make you can do the wonton wraps the day or so ahead and have the sausage mixture made in advance then just 5 minutes before serving you fill the wraps and pop them in the oven. For a lighter exterior I prefer to use Spring Roll wraps. Use your regular pork breakfast sausage. if you wish use Italian sausage or bratwurst

SAUSAGE-FILLED STARS



Sausage-Filled Stars image

This is a fabulous appetizer; it does take a little time to prepare, but the taste is well worth it. If you want to freeze them for later use, they turn out just as good; just pop them in the freezer after filling the cups and then bake a bit longer then in the original recipe.

EASY SAUSAGE CUPS (LIKE SAUSAGE STARS)



Easy Sausage Cups (Like Sausage Stars) image

This is a variation of Sausage Stars/Sausage Cup recipes that use wanton wrappers and ranch dressing. My version uses Tostitos Scoops (bowl shaped corn chips) and cream cheese for some of the ranch dressing. I made these for Christmas Eve and Super Bowl Sunday, and they were a huge hit on both occasions! You can make the filling in advance and refrigerate until you are ready to assemble and bake. If I am taking these to a party, I fill the shells before I leave home and bake when I arrive at the party. They are also great with regular ranch dressing, but we prefer parmesan peppercorn flavor.

  • While your baking the shells brown the sausage and onion together till onion is almost caramelized. Drain grease. Let cool a little bit and add the cheese, dry ranch package, sour cream, chopped jalapeños and salsa. Stir together till all ingredients are well combined. Spoon mixture into shells and bake in 350 degree oven till bubbly. Approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Serve with salsa and sour cream on top!
