For the Filling:

• Sausage – Opt for a leaner version like turkey or chicken sausage to reduce saturated fat, keeping it heart-healthy.
• Eggs – Packed with protein and essential vitamins like B12, eggs are a must-have in any nutritious breakfast.

For the Sausage Gravy:

• • 1 pound of sausage – Adds rich flavor while providing protein for muscle repair and energy.
