No Jimmy Deans over here people (which is probably a good thing!). But every now and then breakfast demands a good sausage. This recipe comes from the Mayo Clinic’s website and is fantastic. Low in fat and full of flavor (I did add a few more seasonings to the recipe). And very easy to make! Oh, and toss a leftover pattie on a whole wheat English muffin with a slice of cheddar cheese the next morning for a great breakfast on the go!
Ingredients:
3 teaspoons dried sage
2 teaspoons dry mustard
2 teaspoons minced dried onions
1 teaspoon granulated sugar
1 teaspoons garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon celery salt
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1 Tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 lb. lean ground pork
1 1/2 lb. ground turkey breast
