Pork Breakfast Sausage


Every once and a while I get tired of bacon for breakfast so I came up with this replacement option. This is a great fresh option and can be served for any meal!

Breakfast Sausage served with spinach salad (blueberries,
blackberries, pumpkin seeds and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar)

1 pound ground pork
2 tsp chili powder
2 tsp ground black pepper
1 tsp season salt
1 tsp oregano
1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 onion, finely chopped
1 egg
2 tbsp coconut flour
Olive oil or coconut oil
1 lemon 

Combine the pork, spices, onion and egg in a bowl. Add in coconut flour 1 tbsp at a time until the mixture tightens up and you are able to form into patties. 

Heat oil in large skillet and saute patties over medium high heat for 5 minutes per side, or until internal pork temperature reaches 160 degrees F (73 degrees C). Remove from skillet and squeeze fresh lemon juice over the patties just before serving. 

The lemon adds a really fresh and light quality to the pork patties.
