Homemade Chicken and Apple Sausage

"I got this recipe from my mom's Joy Of Cooking book. It is very easy, and only has half the fat of regular sausage! Also, you know what's in it (no lips and hooves)! To me, that is a major plus!"

  1. Sahara, Your recipe provided me with the inspiration I needed to make breakfast sausage for our Christmas morning! I used ground pork instead of the chicken and left out the dried apples because I didn't have any...But the addition of the apple juice syrup added such a wonderful flavor to the sausage, along with all the other seasonings...It was a real treat! Thanks so much for a great recipe! ---Martha :)
