Turkey or chicken sausage

Turkey or chicken sausage is a seasoned, ground poultry product commonly used in breakfasts, sandwiches and grills; turkey- and chicken-based sausages are popular where a lighter alternative to pork is desired. They appear across many cuisines and are known for convenient ready-to-cook portions and bold seasoning. Nutrition-wise, Turkey or chicken sausage is a notable source of animal protein, providing about 19.6g of protein per 100g, and also supplies B-vitamins such as B12 and niacin. It contains a moderate amount of fat, including some saturated fat, and typically provides little to no fiber. Because these sausages are processed and seasoned, they deliver high-quality amino acids but can be higher in sodium and are low in fiber compared with whole, unprocessed poultry; choosing lean cuts or homemade versions can preserve the protein benefits while reducing added salt and additives.
