Country-Style Breakfast Sausage Recipe

Ingredients:

1/2 lb lean pork loin, ground
1/2 lb ground turkey breast
1 tsp sage
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp dry mustard
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp freshly-ground black pepper
1/2 tsp red pepper flakes, (optional)
Non-stick spray

Instructions:

Ask the butcher to grind the pork and turkey to the consistency you like --
don't grind too fine.
Mix all ingredients together (except non-stick spray). Shape into 12
patties. Spray skillet with non-stick spray. Fry over medium heat,
covered to reserve moisture.
This recipe yields 12 patties for 6 servings.
Comments: You can vary the flavor by switching the herbs and spices. For
a "softer" flavor, try 1 teaspoon rosemary (omit sage and peppers). For an
Italian flavor, try 1 teaspoon of basil and 1/2 teaspoon of fennel (omit
sage and red pepper).
