Breakfast Turkey Patties

Makes 4 servings (about 12 patties)

Ingredients

• 2 lbs ground turkey

• 1/4 cup minced onion

• 1/4 cup minced Granny Smith apple (remove skin)

• 1/4 cup minced red pepper

Seasoning

• 1 1/2 teaspoons rubbed sage

• ½ teaspoon thyme

• ½ tsp black seed (optional)

• 1 teaspoon ground pepper

• 1 1/2 teaspoon sea salt

• 1 1/2 teaspoon parsley flakes

• ¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes

• ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg

Directions

1. Cook onions, apples and pepper until onions are translucent. Set aside to cool.

2. Combine spices together.

3. In a large bowl combine completely cooled onion mix, spice mix and 2 pounds of ground turkey. Mix well. (You can cook it right away but it tastes better if you refrigerate it for 3 to 24 hours to let the flavors blend together.)

4. Shape into 2 inch patties and cook.

5. Cook in pan 3 minutes on each side OR in a 350 degree oven, turning over after 3 minutes.
