MSG Free Herb & Ginger Mini Sausage Patties
These little patties pack a serious punch of flavor from a lineup of fresh herbs and warm spices — sage, thyme, parsley, ginger, turmeric, and a whisper of Ceylon cinnamon all working together in one tidy bite. Store-bought sausage is one of the sneakiest places for hidden flavor enhancers and additives to show up, so making your own from scratch is genuinely the cleanest route. Here, every ingredient is something you can see and name, with no fillers or flavor shortcuts needed. The fresh ginger and garlic do the heavy lifting on depth, while the coconut oil gives each patty a beautifully golden, slightly crisp crust. Pressing them into uniform rounds means they cook evenly and flip cleanly — no crumbling, no guesswork. They're the kind of thing you'll want on a weekend breakfast plate, tucked into a wrap, or honestly just eaten straight off the pan.
