Breakfast Sausage

I found this one in a Pillsbury Cookbook my mom lent me. It's made with ground turkey, which is what drew me to it. I was originally suspiscious, just because it doesn't sound like it would work, but this is an awesome recipe. I didn't post it under kid friendly, because I don't know how most kids handle sausage, but when I made it this time, Joseph ate it without a single word (which is a very good thing.)

Ingredients

1 lb ground turkey
¾ tsp salt
½ tsp rubbed sage
½ tsp dried thyme
½ tsp ground nutmeg
1/8 tsp cayenne pepper
2 tsp vegetable oil
In a large bowl, combine the turkey, salt, sage, thyme, nutmeg and cayenne. Shape into eight patties, In a large skillet, cook patties in oil over medium heat for 5 minutes on each side or until juices run clear. Drain on paper towels. May also be made as ground sausage.

 

I made mine as ground sausage. It's a bit easier. But I do plan on doing this again, but making them into patties and pre-freezing. I think it should work. It'll be fun. If you do plan on making patties though, I would use wax paper to shape the patties. Ground turkey is especially sticky and your hands will be a mess if you just try to shape them with your bare hands. Good luck!
