Turkey Sausage Patties

 Ingredients:

1 lb. ground turkey 

2 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon ginger powder

1 teaspoon rubbed sage

1 teaspoon fresh rosemary, minced

1 teaspoon  salt 

1/2 teaspoon black pepper 

1-2 tablespoons coconut oil 

Options below: Fresh  or frozen

Directions :

 - In a medium bowl, combine and mix together turkey,  garlic, ginger, sage, rosemary, salt and pepper.

- Shape mixture into small patties by rolling them into a ball in the palm of your hand and then flattening them. The mixture should make about 10  med. sized patties.

- Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil in a large skillet. Add enough patties, so they are not crowded in the pan. You will have to cook these in two batches.

- Cook them for 4-5 minutes on the first side, until lightly browned and the patty lifts from the pan easily. Flip and cook them on the second side for 2 to 3 minutes, or until they are browned on both sides. Move cooked patties to a plate and set aside.

- Option notes* For making fresh patties, add one  finely diced  Granny Smith Apple with the peeling to the mixture. And Fry according to the recipe.

For Frozen Patties:  Place  the uncooked patties in a freezer container and put wax  paper in between layers and freeze, to thaw,  place in the refrigerator overnight. Then fry according to the recipe.
