My family loves when I make breakfast sausage from scratch. Yes, I often purchase sausage because it's quicker, but nothing beats the taste of fresh sausage.
My favorite sausage to make is ground turkey with lots of spices. I often like to add cayenne pepper for an added kick!
The key to great sausage is allowing the flavors to blend overnight in the refrigerator.
I formed my patties using a 1/4 measuring cup and pan fried them in a little olive oil for 5-6 minutes per side.
You can also freeze the sausage for months.
Enjoy!
