Seasoned Sausage (for meat sauces or pizza)

1 pound ground beef/pork
1/2 tsp sage (if you have)
1 tsp oregano
1 tsp basil
2 minced garlic cloves
1/2 onion minced or 2 T dried onion flakes
1/2 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper

Mix meat and seasonings in bowl and let set, covered, in fridge for 1-2 hours.

Brown meat in pan with olive oil, trying to keep in fairly large chunks.

Can be used immediately or frozen for future use. Simply double or triple recipe for larger batches.

This is great in Spaghetti Sauce, on Pizzas, or in Calzones.
