ZERO SMARTPOINTS ON FREESTYLE
When you are working to improve your health, there are a lot of flavors that will be missing from your diet. For breakfast, you may be struggling to find variety. While there are a ton of turkey and chicken sausage options in store, many of those are also chock full of nitrates, insane amounts of sodium and those unknown bits of meat that make us cringe. Using lean ground chicken breasts and seasoning these patties yourself will give you the flavor you want without all of the bad for you stuff.
Getting healthy doesn't mean you have to sacrifice flavor, or any of your favorite foods. You simply have to think outside the box to create delicious healthier options that can fit into your diet. These yummy Weight Watchers chicken breakfast sausage patties are super easy to throw together and cook, plus they are perfect for making ahead and freezing. Season and form then pack in freezer containers to grab and cook on the go, or even go so far as to cook large batches and portion for even quicker reheating on busy mornings. This recipe is also Whole 30 compliant and Keto Friendly.
This recipe is included in our popular Beginner Keto Meal Plan.
