I like Publix’s Mild Italian Ground Turkey better than just regular ground turkey. It has more flavor but isn’t strong. When it is on sale for $4.99, I will buy several packages, freeze and vacuum-seal them to store in the freezer for months. I made this recipe using a pound of it.

  • 1 lb. ground turkey sausage
  • ½ cup peeled, cored and grated tart green apple
  • 1 TBS maple syrup
  • ½ cup fine dried breadcrumbs
  • Salt and pepper
  • Canola oil for cooking

Mix the turkey sausage with the apple, maple syrup, breadcrumbs and salt/pepper. Form into 5” patties, no more than ½” thick. You should have about 12. Again, I freeze them and store them in twos in vacuum sealed bags. When I am ready to make the breakfast sandwiches, I toast wheat Keto buns, spread them with butter, and top them with a cooked sausage patty, scrambled eggs, and a slice of Velveeta American Cheese. Fast and delicious.

Did you know that you can make scrambled eggs in the microwave? For two eggs, take a 2 cup glass measuring cup, spray it with butter non-stick spray. Add the eggs and beat with 1 TBS cream. (If you want, you can add chopped cheese and bacon bits or spinach and feta – whatever you like.) Microwave on high for 40 seconds. Remove and stir well. Microwave for 20 seconds more, remove and stir again. Finito.
