The herb and spice blend used is pretty much identical to my <a href=\"https:\/\/scarytaskbar.com\/recipes\/2017\/03\/16\/turkey-breakfast-sausage-patties\/\">turkey breakfast sausage<\/a> recipe, only instead of measuring them out first and then grinding them up, I have switched to using pre-ground herbs for this recipe. You can either buy them pre-ground, or grind them yourself, in a small blade style <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/2U0bwMp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">coffee grinder<\/a>, dedicated just to spice grinding.
