Here’s a tantalizing recipe for homemade sausage! These delicious little links are great for breakfast or dinner, and are simple enough to make with a standard meat grinder. Because they’re made with lean meat, you can rest assured you’re having a healthy meal.

Ingredients:

2 lbs. boneless, skinless turkey breast
1 lb. boneless pork loin
1 tbsp. browning and seasoning sauce
½ tsp. garlic
½ tsp. onion
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Place your turkey breast and pork loin in your meat grinder, and combine it with the seasonings. To make your links, you’ll want to use a sausage funnel with a ¾ inch tip to place the meat into the casings. While you hold the casing secure, use a spoon to push the meat mixture through. Cut off the ends of the casings, and leave about two inches at each end to twist or tie off. Bring about an inch of water to a boil in a skillet, then lower the heat and cover. Let the sausages cook for about 10-12 minutes. Uncover, and then increase the heat to high for a couple of minutes while the sausages brown. Add salt and fresh crack pepper from one of your pepper mills to taste.
