Sample Share: Johnsonville's fully cooked breakfast sausage

I've got a few more sample shares to talk about before the month runs out! :) Up next: Johnsonville's fully cooked breakfast sausage. Crowdtap sent me a coupon to try it for free. The only local place (read: northeastern Connecticut for those stumbling across this blog!) is stop & shop. It's located in the meat department. I found it by the counter, as opposed to where the rest of the sausage is. I had to try the Vermont maple syrup variety, being the proud New Englander that I am.

Much like the packages leads you to believe, it was super easy to cook! I'm not a huge microwave fan, so I went the skillet route. It heats up on a skillet for 8-10 minutes (8 minutes was perfect for us). We decided to go for a breakfast-for-dinner night and served the sausage with scrambled eggs and yogurt. The sausage was perfectly cooked (none of those random cold spots I've experienced with other brand) and there was little to no gristle in the links. The maple flavor was subtle and very good (according to the package, flavored with real maple. Sure-fire brownies points from me!). My kiddos loved them (my oldest is obsessed! He bribed the two year old to share so he could have more!).  Overall, a really good product that I would definitely buy again. Keep scrolling for some photos of the finished product, as well as my kiddos digging in!
