Introduction
Turkey sausage boulettes.
Isn’t true that some of the best dishes are the simplest one? Here is one of my favorite one, “boulettes” or meat patties.
As we never have turkey at our house with the exception of Thanksgiving, I decided to use ground turkey and sausage meat instead of the usual ground veal or beef to make the patties. While I was experimenting with new meats, I added mushrooms to the onions to the mix. The combination was quite light and tasty. The sausage meat added a nice flavor to the turkey and was not dry at all.

Instead of making the patties, the below recipe may be made into a meatloaf.
Our staples rosemary potatoes and green salad was enjoyed by all.
TIP: Taste the meat mixture before adding more pepper. Some sausage meats have more pepper than others, and too much pepper can over power the flavor.
Placing the meat mixture in the refrigerator for 10 to 15 minutes will solidify the whole and make it more manageable when rolled.
