Purdy Darn Good Breakfast Patties
After failing to find a decent breakfast sausage that was gluten free, not too sweet and with simple whole ingredients that pleased our palates, I decided to try my own.
I’m not sure why this didn’t occur to me earlier since I make much of our food from scratch….but finally a light bulb did go on.
And the results were delicious! Best of all, it was easy to make a batch that would reheat for future mornings too!
This is a super simple recipe. Feel free to experiment with your favorite spices or swap out the ground pork for lamb or some other pastured meat. As always, organic, local and pastured animal products are preferred.
