About Ground sausage
Ground sausage is a versatile and flavorful meat product typically made from pork, though variations using turkey, chicken, or plant-based proteins are also available. It is seasoned with a blend of spices, such as fennel, sage, garlic, paprika, or red pepper flakes, giving it a distinctive taste that varies by cuisine. Ground sausage is a staple in many cooking traditions, including Italian, American, and German cuisines, and is often used in dishes like pasta, breakfast scrambles, and stews. Nutritionally, ground sausage is high in protein but can also contain a significant amount of fat, sodium, and calories, depending on the recipe. Healthier options, such as leaner cuts or reduced-sodium varieties, are available for those mindful of dietary concerns. It's best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet, paired with nutrient-rich vegetables or whole grains to round out its indulgent taste and hearty texture.
