I have used this recipe several times with great results. I've adjusted the ingredients to what I have on hand. I have used lean (4% fat) ground pork, adding 1 egg for binding with the oatmeal. I also included some (1/4 tsp or so) poultry seasoning. -
My husband and I were looking for a way to make breakfast sausage late night a couple weeks ago. We always have ground turkey on hand, so it worked out well. Also, used cumin powder instead of fennel seeds. We added some chili powder for a nice kick and extra crushed red pepper and black pepper. Turned out really nice and was awesome in gravy with biscuits. Thanks! -
This recipe didn't have the traditional sausage taste I'm looking for. It does, however, tast great as meatballs with spaghetti. -
Wonderful Recipe. I did change the fennel seeds to cumin seed and used a little more pepper flakes. I also plan next time to use some sage. Thank you for posting this wonderful alternative to processed sausage. -
Easy to make. Better with ground pork because of fat content. I was looking for a stronger flavor from the sausage. Suggestions: add more pepper; try 1/4 - 1 tsp of cardomom for a sweet tatse, possibly toast the fennel seeds before mixing
