This sure was a pleasant surprise this morning! I had one of my hotdog buns left and didn’t feel like having eggs and sausage today, so I dreamed up this tasty treat. These were sooooo good! The smoked Gouda goes marvelously with the spices in typical breakfast sausage. You men may want to use TWO sausage patties on yours (my hubby did). But only ONE patty of meat is reflected in the nutritional info below. This recipe is Induction friendly. Of course, you can use other bulk sausage for this, but it will taste a bit different as the spices will be different in the meat. 🙂 You can also use one of my round sandwich buns, if you have those made up and just cut in it half to make the top and bottom bun. If you prefer some other favorite low-carb bread, GO FOR IT! 🙂
