Meal Prep Turkey Sausage Recipe

Whether you’re hunting wild turkey or just buying some from the grocery store, this recipe is one of my wife’s favorites for meal prepping breakfast. 3 lbs of ground turkey make plenty of sausage patties for fat-burning high-protein breakfasts during the week.

As a bonus, it’s super simple to make. For best results, either cook them on a cast iron skillet or grill them.

Breakfast Sausage Recipe

• 3 lbs ground turkey
• 3 teaspoons sea salt
• 2 teaspoons ground pepper
• 1 teaspoon dried ground sage
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme
• 1/4 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar,  maple syrup, or coconut palm sugar
• 3/4 teaspoons nutmeg
• Optional: 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• Optional: 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes

Directions

Combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix well so that all the herbs and spices get combined evenly.

Form into 12 patties. If you have a food scale, they’ll each be roughly 4oz each.

Saute in coconut oil or grass-fed butter or grill for about 4-5 minutes on each side.
