Open in Pepper →A pound of breakfast sausage browns in about 8 minutes and turns into breakfast, dinner, or something you carry out the door. That's why it stays in the freezer.
Cooks on Pepper reach for this collection on school mornings, on holiday mornings when people are standing around the kitchen, and on the nights when breakfast for supper is the only thing everybody agrees on.
Every recipe here starts with that same pound of sausage: Carnivore Breakfast Sausage Egg Cups, Breakfast Sausage Crescent Rolls, Breakfast Sausage Dip with cream cheese and Velveeta, Breakfast Sausage Balls with hash browns, Breakfast Sausage and Potato Burritos, and sausage gravy over plain bagels.
Brown the sausage first
Cook bulk sausage in a dry skillet over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes, breaking it up as you go, until no pink remains.
Drain but save a spoonful
Pour off the grease, then keep 2 tablespoons in the pan for gravy — that's where the flavor for sausage gravy bagels comes from.
Grease the muffin tin well
Egg cups and egg muffins stick fast; butter every cup or use liners, and let them cool 5 minutes before lifting them out.
Thaw hash browns completely
Wet potatoes make sausage balls and casseroles soggy, so pat the hash browns dry with paper towels before mixing.
