I used to really enjoy the Morningstar Sausage Patties in my Vegetarian days, but since they are not Vegan friendly I decided to try my hand at making my own. I know there are other brands that are Vegan, but I just prefer to make my own. This list of ingredients looks long, but keep in mind that most of it is spices and you can omit a couple if you do not have them. The fennel is a must, as is the Cayenne and Black Pepper, but the rest is just the combination I came up with that I enjoy. So if you try to make these and you don't have mace spice on hand, don't panic and don't go spend $13 on it as it is an expensive spice to purchase to use so little. These are really easy to make and the frozen leftovers are awesome on those mornings when we are eating and running out for school or work.
