Roll the ground sausage into a ball and flatten with your hand between a sheet of parchment paper. The sausage patty should be very thin since it will plump up when cooking.
Place the sausage patty in a nonstick skillet (or use an oiled skillet) and cook over medium high heat for 2 minutes. Flip the sausage patty and continue cooking for another 2 minutes or until throughly cooked (165º F). Place a slice of cheese over top and cover the skillet until the cheese begins to melt, about 30 seconds.
While the patty is cooking, toast the English muffin on low to warm it. Assemble your sandwich and enjoy!

If making an Egg Sausage McMuffin - heat a small egg pan over medium heat with a pat of butter. Crack an egg into the pan and use the egg shell to break the yolk so it spreads. Cook for about 1 minute, then flip and cook for another 30 seconds until desired doneness. Build your breakfast sandwich with the sausage patty, melted cheese and egg. Yummy!

- Be sure to really flatten your sausage patty before cooking. It always plumps up more than you think it will and you want it to cover your English muffin.
- You can make these ahead of time. Wrap them in parchment paper and store in the refrigerator. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time until heated through.
