Make-Ahead Breakfast Sausage for Camping

So while you can definitely make these simply at your campsite with the ingredients and a bowl, I like to make ahead to save time in the morning. You can also freeze these after making which helps keep the cooler cold

I am also lucky to have Oaktown Spice Shop locally and highly recommend their spice blends especially this breakfast sausage one. Yes, you can make your own spice blend but theirs is so tasty, I haven’t made one in years!

Ingredients

  • 1 lb. ground turkey
  • Salt
  • Oaktown Spice Shop Breakfast Sausage blend
  • Maple syrup (optional)

Directions

  1. Knead 2 tsp. salt into 1 lb. ground turkey for a few minutes in a large bowl
  2. Add 2 tbsp. of breakfast sausage spice and mix together with hands
  3. Add 1-2 tsp. maple syrup depending on how sweet you like making sure patties remain sticky
  4. Form into small patties
  5. Heat oil in a fry pan
  6. Add patties to pan and cook for about 5 minutes
  7. Flip and cook for another 5 minutes or until the center is 165 degrees
  8. Add to freezer bags if storing in freezer or can keep in refrigerator for 3-4 days

  • Oil
  • Yellow Onion, chopped
  • Salsa verde (1 1/2 – 2 small cans)
  • Eggs
  • Queso fresco, crumbled
  • Cilantro
  • Radishes, sliced (optional)
  • Avocado, sliced (optional)

Directions –

  1. Add oil to a small skillet.  Once heated, add one corn tortilla and fry until crispy (about 3-4 min).  Flip and fry other side until crispy.  Remove and place on plate with paper towel – *Note: This step was done on my propane grill just for convenience but can be done on a campfire in a cast iron
  2. Cut each fried tortilla into 8 triangles
  3. In a cast iron pan over a campfire, heat oil and then add onions and saute
  4. Add salsa verde to pan and put over direct heat of the fire
  5. Once it begins to bubble, stir in beaten eggs – Since I pour my eggs into water bottles before the trip, this just requires pouring into pan
  6. Stir eggs periodically until thicken
  7. Add chips and toss gently until they are covered in sauce
  8. Remove from campfire
  9. Sprinkle with cheese
  10. Top with extra onions, cilantro, radishes and sliced avocado
