Ingredients
Pecan Breakfast "Sausage"
  • 1 teaspoon extra-virgin olive oil
  • ½ medium onion, diced (about ½ cup)
  • 1 tablespoon coconut aminos (can sub low-sodium soy sauce)
  • 1 teaspoon sage
  • 1 teaspoon thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon nutmeg
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder

Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 325 F and grease a 12x17-inch sheet pan.
  2. To make the Pecan Breakfast “Sausage,” heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion, coconut aminos, sage, thyme, nutmeg, garlic powder, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. Cook for 4 minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
