    Making food from scratch has always intrigued me because I like to know what is in my food.  That’s why I am bringing you this Homemade Turkey Sausage recipe today!

    I love knowing that every ingredient is wholesome and readily found in the kitchen, and not a chemical…or even worse, hidden sugars!

    How would it feel to start losing with keto?

    Store bought turkey sausage can have hidden sugars, just like a lot of other processed foods bought in grocery stores.

    A homemade turkey sausage recipe that is easy, makes this even more exciting!  It is literally just throwing everything in a bowl, or food processor, and mixing it all up!

    You can use this turkey sausage in my recipes for Keto Breakfast Sandwiches, or my Egg Roll in a Bowl!

    The seasoning I used for this homemade turkey sausage are sage, rosemary, fennel, nutmeg, red pepper flake, and salt.

    I like to mix everything up and then cook a little piece to test my seasonings and adjust…especially salt and pepper.

    I used 93/7 turkey that was already ground.  To keep this low fat, you would just add the seasonings and be done.

    To make this a little more keto or low carb friendly, I added some fat to the mix….specifically bacon fat.

    Adding a little bacon fat to the mix made this turkey sausage over the top delicious!

    After everything was mixed up, I formed them into small patties and fried them in the skillet.

    You could also cook this into crumbles and use it in any recipe that calls for sausage.  I think this would be fantastic in my Stuffed Acorn Squash recipe!
