We started a Whole30 Facebook group filled with some FANTASTIC people (which you’re more than welcome to join), and one of the many questions that frequently gets asked is, “What if I can’t do eggs?!” An egg free Whole30 cycle can be tricky, so we thought we’d create a great protein packed breakfast that was egg free! These Whole30 Sausage Patties can make the perfect quick breakfast or even snack, especially if you’re on the go. Make them ahead, freeze, and pull out a few the night before.
This year I’m doing Whole30 pregnant while CrossFitting 5 days a week, so I’m doing my best to incorporate lots of starchy Whole30 compliant carbohydrates to keep me going!

- 2 T Ghee or other cooking fat of your choice
- 1/2 cup onion
- 1.5 t minced garlic
- 1 cup spinach
- 1/2 cup shredded carrots
- 1 cooked sweet potato
- 1 pound ground pork
- 1/2 t dried sage
- 1/4 t Himalayan salt
- 1/4 t pepper
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees. Heat one T of Ghee in a skillet. When it’s hot add in onion, garlic, and carrots. Cook until onions are translucent and carrots begin to soften. Next add in your cooked sweet potato and cup of spinach. Be sure to mash the sweet potato in the skillet and continue to stir all ingredients together until spinach begins to wilt. In a bowl, combine ground pork, sage, salt and pepper. Add vegetables to the ground pork, and begin to make your patties. The sausage patties should be about 1 inch thick.
Fry the sausage patties for about 2-4 minutes on each side in your skillet until the patties are brown on each side. Transfer sausage to a baking sheet and let them finish cooking for 7 minutes in the oven. These freeze great! I freeze 3 in a bag and pull out the night before I’m ready to eat! Enjoy!
If you liked this recipe you might also like our Easy Whole30 Meatballs. I usually make a big batch of meatballs and these sausage patties at the same time since the ingredient list is fairly similar.
