Breakfast burgers
When Mr. Squid mentioned he wanted to make breakfast burgers I wasn’t immediately on board. See, we tried out breakfast pizzas once on a whim and the results were, well, not good.
But sausage patties are perfect for the grill. We buy ours from a local farmer’s market that makes fresh pork and turkey varieties. Top your grilled patty with the works like bacon, cheese, and a fried egg. Or keep it simple–I like just a turkey sausage patty topped with thick-sliced tomato.
Recipe
Prep time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4
Ingredients
4 sausage patties (1 pound)
4 whole wheat kaiser buns
4 slices bacon, if desired
4 slices cheddar cheese, if desired
4 eggs
Directions
- Form the sausage into 4 thin patties.
- Heat the grill to high, then place the sausage patties on the grill.
- Cook for 3-4 minutes on each side.
- Take the patties off the grill. While they cool prepare a fried egg for each.
- Place the patty on the bun followed by the bacon, cheese, and fried egg. (Alternatively, top the sausage patty with a slice of tomato.)

My son makes breakfast sandwiches with sausage patties, eggs and bagels. He is big on meat in the morning!

Nothing wrong with a breakfast sandwich. Or breakfast for dinner, for that matter.

This sounds really good, though I’d have to do mine without a bun. We have a breakfast dish here called loco moco. It’s a burger patty on a bed of sticky rice, topped with a fried egg and then gravy. It’s a very popular breakfast dish. I indulge once every couple of years.

Yes, breakfast for dinner is a regular thing around here. Eggs are a wonderfood in my book

looks tasty. what would be a good veg substitiue for the sausage? mushrooms, perhaps, onions, butternut squash…or just have it with egg and cheese perhaps.

These look great. But I also would go for a veggie option. Of course, eggs and cheese would be great too.
