Turkey Sausage

Turkey Sausage is a processed poultry sausage commonly used in breakfasts, sandwiches and pastas; varieties can be spiced, smoked or milder depending on the product. It’s valued as a leaner alternative to traditional pork sausage and is popular in cuisines and dishes that want a high-protein meat option. Nutritionally, it is primarily a protein source, providing about 20g of protein per 100g, and tends to be lower in carbohydrates and sugars than many processed options. It also supplies some B vitamins such as niacin and thiamine and a small amount of omega‑3s. From a health perspective, this sausage delivers high-quality, satiating protein, but because it is a processed product it can be relatively high in sodium compared with whole cuts of poultry; choosing lower-salt varieties or whole turkey cuts can reduce sodium intake.
