Crystal's Turkey Sausage


This is an awesome make-ahead breakfast sausage. It’s easy to adapt to the spices you like, too. I like to cook mine crumbled instead of patties and almost burned. (But that’s the Cajun in me…) Oh, I also add mushrooms to mine, but I’m weird like that.


Makes: ~ 4 servings



Ingredients:





  • 1 lb. ground meat 93% fat free


  • 1/3 onion, shredded


  • 1 carrot, shredded


  • 1 medium apple, shredded


  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder


  • 1 teaspoon dried parsley



 Directions:





  1. Mix all ingredients together in a bowl. Divide into four equal patties.




  2. Heat sauce pan on medium-high heat.




  3. Brown patties for about 7 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through. Each patty is one serving.





Tips ‘n’ Tricks:




  • Make these up on the weekend, and store them in individual sized baggies for a grab-n-go breakfast.


  • You can completely customize the spices and vegetables to what your family prefers - try a Mexican themed sausage with cumin, chili powder, jalapeno peppers, and tomatoes.


  • Need a non-paleo idea? Chop one of these bad boys up and stuff it in a pita or tortilla with a little cheese - instant bliss.
