Pan sausage, often referred to as breakfast sausage, is a seasoned ground meat typically made from pork, though variations may include turkey or chicken. Originating from European cuisines, it has become a staple in American breakfast dishes. The sausage blend commonly includes salt, black pepper, sage, and other spices, providing a savory, comforting flavor. It is often cooked in a skillet and served alongside eggs, biscuits, or pancakes. Nutritionally, pan sausage is high in protein, offering energy and satiety. However, it can also be high in saturated fats and sodium, which may be concerns for heart health if consumed in excess. Leaner versions made with poultry or reduced fat content are healthier alternatives. While rich in flavor, moderation and mindful cooking methods, such as draining excess grease, can make pan sausage a balanced addition to meals.
