The Champ’s Sausage Without Guilt
You can start your day with a sizzling sausage patty that not only tastes
good, but is also good for you. This moist, flavorful sausage, served with
a country-style biscuit, makes the complete breakfast. Choose ground
turkey breast, which is lower in fat than ground turkey containing dark
meat and skin. Turkey, especially the light meat, is a good source of
niacin, which is an important B vitamin needed to maintain a healthy nervous system.

1/2 cup finely chopped fresh red Delicious apple

George’s Sausage Texas Style
A spicy sausage with true Southwestern zip! These breakfast sausages
are great served with a sautéed vegetable or fresh salsa and egg
scramble. Buy 90% lean ground beef for the least-fat sausage. Ninety
percent lean beef has 9 grams of fat with 4 of those grams being saturated fat; whereas 73% lean beef has 18 grams of fat with 7 of the grams
being saturated.

George Foreman’s PowerBurger
A flavorful hamburger that we think tastes even better than its all-meat
cousin! It pays to eat meals that minimize meat. To reduce saturated fat
in a typical burger, you can cut back on the amount of meat and make up
for it with plant-based ingredients. Bread crumbs and chopped vegetables have been added in this recipe. You could also try cooked rice, other
grains or cereal. In addition, choose whole wheat buns; they typically
contain one less fat gram than regular or even reduced-calorie buns.
If you settle for nothing less than a cheeseburger, Swiss cheese
is 1 gram lower in fat than Cheddar, American or Monterey Jack with 8
of fat versus 9 in each ounce of cheese. However, reduced fat cheeses like
Cheddar or Swiss contain half the fat with 4 grams per
contains 1 gram of fat per tablespoon versus a whop
tablespoon of mayonnaise.
Top your burger in healthful style with dark, leafy green lettuce, shredded
cabbage, fresh cilantro, basil or spinach.

green onions, zucchini, parsley (can be sautéed)
