Breakfast Sausage
Breakfast Sausage (dairy free, gluten free, paleo)
Breakfast has never been one of my favorite meals, if I’m being honest. Especially now with many restrictions it’s hard to eat a “normal” breakfast. Luckily though, this sausage recipe gives me a breakfast meat option for whenever I want a more filling breakfast. It’s easy to make and can be kept in the freezer for months. So whenever you want sausage just pop it into the microwave or oven. No need to be buying store bought sausage anymore. The seasoning mix can be used with whatever meat you prefer. You can also dice an apple and add a few tablespoons of maple syrup for apple maple sausage. Or do what I do and drizzle a little maple syrup on it.
