Homemade Breakfast Sausage Patties

Ground pork, turkey, or chicken plus a short list of spices create a healthy alternative to sausage that can be used in so many ways. The easy recipe can be cut in half or doubled, and the patties freeze well whether cooked or uncooked. Sometimes, I add ½ teaspoon of crushed dried rosemary too.

Popeye’s Baked Eggs

For quick and easy breakfasts, I often make this veggie-rich casserole the night before, allow it to cool, and then cover and refrigerate. Gently reheat individual portions, as needed, in the microwave or oven.

This meat-free dish is loaded with flavor and I usually prepare it precisely as described below. On occasion, however, I layer a half cup of finely chopped deli ham over the spinach. Optionally, cooked bacon or sausage could be added.

Easy Egg & Guacamole Breakfast Pizza

Freezer Breakfast Burritos

If desired, add an extra spoonful of salsa between the sausage and cheese layer when assembling the burritos. In this case, just make sure to drain any excess juice. This will prevent the burrito from becoming soggy. Including the optional add-ins may allow you to stretch your ingredients to make one or two extra burritos.

Yields 8 burritos.
