Pigs in a Paleo Pouch

  3.8 – 3 reviews  • Sausage

Delicious low-carb, high-protein breakfast suggestion. I enjoy cooking my own sausage since I know exactly what’s in it, and it’s simple to do! These are easily reheated and kept. Make these on Sunday and consume them during the week as a simple “grab-and-go” meal.

Prep Time: 10 mins

Servings: 8
Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

  1. 2 teaspoons salt
  2. 2 teaspoons dried sage
  3. 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  4. ⅛ teaspoon ground turmeric
  5. ⅛ teaspoon dried marjoram
  6. 2 pounds ground pork
  7. 1 tablespoon butter, or more as needed
  8. 8 eggs

Instructions

  1. Stir salt, sage, black pepper, turmeric, and marjoram together in a bowl. Place pork in a separate bowl. Sprinkle salt mixture evenly over pork and stir to combine. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
  2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Butter eight 8-ounce ramekins.
  3. Divide sausage mixture into 8 balls. Press each ball into a ramekin, creating a well in the center of each. Crack an egg into each sausage well.
  4. Bake in the preheated oven until sausage is cooked through and eggs are set, 30 to 40 minutes.

These are great and perfect for my Keto way of eating. I was looking for a quick breakfast I could take to work with me. These actually reheat really well! I made a half batch since I live alone. Mine ended up taking the full 40 mins. Even at 40 mins they were slightly soft, but how I like them. I packaged them up in individual plastic containers and each morning I grab one for work. I reheat them on 50% power for 1:45. I will be making these again, tweaking the seasonings slightly. They’ve very versatile.

We really liked these. I did not use the sausage recipe, as I had breakfast sausage from pork we had processed. 20 minutes if you want the yolk a bit runny or 30 for a firm egg. A pretty tasty breakfast treat.
