GRANDMA'S SAUERKRAUT BALLS
This is a family recipe that's been made for family gatherings since I was a kid. They're delicious, and usually go in the first five minutes of a party, causing dinner to be delayed because everyone is full. The great thing is that they can be made ahead of time and frozen, then reheated as needed.

Steps:
- Heat a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook and sausage and onion in the hot skillet until sausage is browned and crumbly, 8 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
- Transfer to a large bowl and add sauerkraut, cream cheese, parsley, mustard, garlic powder, and pepper. Mix until well combined. Cover and place in the refrigerator to chill for about 1 hour.
- Place flour in a shallow dish. Whisk milk and eggs together in a separate dish. Place bread crumbs in a third dish.
- Remove sauerkraut and sausage mixture from the refrigerator and roll into 3/4 inch balls. Roll balls in flour, then in milk-egg mixture, then in bread crumbs.
- Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
- Deep fry in batches until golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels.
