Am I doing this right????

  • I am making sausage balls and don't know if I'm doing this right

    sausage came to 31pts for 1lb but it says for pan fried is it the same??

    cheese came to 6pt

    bread crumbs came to 2pt

    so together it is 39pt which made 10 balls so divide those and it comes to 4pt a ball is that correct
  • Raw sausage has more points than cooked because all the fat is still in it. If the information provided was for cooked sausage, you'd probably have about 12 ounces. So maybe 3 points.
  • the label said 2oz pan fried was a serving and about 4.5 in package with 250 cal 9 fat 0fiber for whole package I came up with 31pt
  • Duh, I just re-read your top post that it is 1 pound of sausage.
  • Okay if it is 4.5 servings the nutrition would be: 1,125 cals 40.5fat giving it a point total of: 26

    If you mean 4.5oz in the whole package he nutrition would be:562.5 cals and 20.25 fat making the point total: 13

    I got the points by entering it on the ww web site. How are you figuring points? Hope the online tool isn't broken!

    This is just for the sausage - also they say "pan-fried" which means cooked, so don't subtract for the leftover grease.
  • LOL no it's correct just user error on my part. I have a points calculator that I'm using to figure out points. so there would be 34pt in whole recipe then divide that by 5 portions so it would be 7pt a portion right???
  • Yes! 34 for the whole recipe, 7pts per serving. Hope they turned out delicious!

    I really like this meatball recipe too, and it's 4 points for 5 balls:
