Sausage Brunch Muffins

Sausage Breakfast Muffins

"These were pretty good! My husband summed it up perfectly when he said it tasted as if you got a biscuit from McDonald’s and put some sausage on it (which is not a bad thing, by the way). After I made and tasted the first batch I added a seven-ounce can of green chiles and some more cheese, which I liked better.”

Homemade Breakfast Sausage

"Honestly, I was kind of surprised how good this was! We don't eat pork, so I used all hamburger, and was expecting just that — flavored hamburger. The beauty of this recipe is that somewhere along the way, the combination of the spices and water changed the texture of the meat to a more 'sausage-y' consistency!”

-Cookin-4-5

Sausage & Cheese Scones for Your Freezer

-StacyMD187373

-Linajjac

-paulamills2222

Special Beef Breakfast Sausage

“While I enjoyed the sausage, I kept thinking of burgers and really think this would be great on a bun with cheese and ketchup, sort of like a sausage burger. Maybe with a little more seasoning added it would be more of what I think of for sausage.”

-wendy.halmai

-riffraff

Hash Browns Sausage Casserole

"Terrific breakfast casserole! The hash browns stay nice and crisp, even after baking with the egg mixture. You'd swear there were more than four eggs; the milk really stretches the mixture without becoming soggy.”

-Parsley

Mexican Chorizo

-AmandaMcG
