Daddy Would You Like Some Sausage?

I've been wanting to make sausage at home ever since I started watching Top Chef -- the judges seem to always ask the contestants "did you make your own sausage?" Must be a big deal, right? So I browsed around for recipes and it seems like sausage is basically one thing: meat and spices. That's it?!?! I can handle that! And since I just got home from working out, I might as well make it a lean recipe:

• 1 lb. ground venison
• 1 lb. ground turkey
• 1 tbsp. parsley
• 1 tbsp. oregano
• 1/4 tbsp. salt (I used about 1/2, it turned out a little salty)
• 3/4 tsp. black pepper
• 3/4 tsp. thyme
• 1/2 tsp. garlic powder
• 1/2 tsp. ground ginger
• 1/4 tsp. ground cloves (I used more, but it was a little too much)

1. Put all ingredients in a large bowl. Mix it well to make an even mixture.
2. Form into patties, balls or just brown it like ground beef.
3. If you freeze it, make sure to cook it well after thawing.
