Glazed Sausage Bites
These are the rounds on the foil. Cut sausage, a glossy dark glaze, a few charred edges. No brown sugar. No honey. One serving is about 240 calories, 16g protein, and 4g net carbs. The full tray is the picture, not one plate.Use a smoked sausage or kielbasa you have checked. A sweet glazed sausage already has sugar and misses the card. Slice it into thick rounds so they sit flat and brown on both sides, the way they do in the pan. The glaze is sugar-free sweetener, mustard, and a splash of soy or Worcestershire. It should coat, not pool.Toss the slices in the glaze, spread them in one layer, and bake until the edges color and the glaze sticks. Crowded rounds steam and stay pale. Twenty minutes covers the slice and the bake.Why you'll love it

The Secret to the Gloss
Coat the rounds before they go in the oven, then leave them in one layer. Piled up, they steam and the glaze stays thin. Sugar-free sweetener browns slower than brown sugar, so give the edges time to color. Pull them when the glaze looks sticky, not when the pan is dry.Frequently Asked Questions ❓
Can I use sweet Italian sausage? 🌭
Only if it has no added sugar. A sweet glaze on the package misses the card.Why is my glaze watery? 💧

Yes. Fridge, covered, up to 4 days. Reheat on a pan so the glaze goes glossy again.Prep Time: 5 mins
