non-processed meat for breakfast (lemm.ee)

Hello everyone!

I'm looking for ideas for a non-processed meat that goes well with breakfast. In the past, I had bacon, eggs, and maybe some oats or a salad. I cut the traditional bacon, and now have either beans or turkey bacon as my "breakfast meat". But, turkey bacon is still really high in sodium (and is a processed meat) and beans just don't satisfy that meat craving sometimes. And substituting a different meat has been kinda hard; chicken breast, while unprocessed, just doesn't go well with breakfast.

So, I just wanted to know what other people do for breakfast, if they struggle with this dilemna, and any feedback the community has.

Thanks!

Pork chops, a hamburger patty, steak, salmon, even mushrooms are all options that would satisfy ya.

Make your own sausage or chorizo without the bad stuff. Grind a cheap cut of meat (pork, beef, chicken, anything) and mix in your favorite spices (just Google the spices used in any specific sausage style you like) and press it into a patty. Since you won't be long-term storing or curing it, you can skip everything but the meat and seasoning while still getting something that tastes like a classic processed sausage.

I like this suggestion. I have bought ground turkey and added spices then flattened to make breakfast sausage patties before. Cooked and frozen so I could quickly reheat add them to future breakfast sandwiches.
