Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, or so they say. But it’s easy to get into the yogurt, fruit, and granola habit without a second thought during busy weekday mornings. Sometimes a change of pace, or in this case, a change of protein, is a great way to shake up your morning meal! Below is a scrumptious recipe for Handmade Apple Turkey Breakfast Patties. Make them on the weekend when you have the time and heat a few up on the stove or in the microwave for the protein part of your breakfast when you are in a rush! Pair with fruit and almonds for a complete meal.
