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 slightly beaten egg white
1/3 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup finely snipped dried apples or
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh red Delicious apple
1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
2 tbsp. snipped fresh parsley
1/2 tsp. sea salt
1/2 tsp. ground sage
1/4 tsp. ground nutmeg
1/4 tsp. black pepper
1/8 tsp. cayenne pepper
1/2 lb. lean ground turkey breast
• In a medium size mixing bowl, combine the egg white, onion, dried or fresh
apples, bread crumbs, parsley, salt, sage, nutmeg, black pepper and cayenne
pepper. Add the ground turkey and mix well.
• Shape the mixture into eight or nine 2-inch wide patties.
• Preheat the grill and place the patties two at a time. Close the lid. Cook for
5 minutes or until the meat is no longer pink and the juices run clear, turning
once or twice.
• Yield: 8 - 9 patties.

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.

1/3 cup finely chopped onion
1/4 cup seasoned bread crumbs
1/4 cup diced green chili peppers
1 clove (large) garlic, finely minced
