Prep
Make sausage seasoning - Finely chop sage and garlic. Combine sage, garlic, dried thyme, and salt (portion for sausage). (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
Make sausage patties - Combine turkey and sausage seasoning until evenly combined (it’s easiest to do this with your hands). Form into 4 even patties (for 4 servings; adjust if customizing). Form a depression in the center of each patty with your thumb (this will prevent them from rounding in the middle). (Can be done up to 3 days ahead)
Make parfaits - Divide coconut yogurt between glasses or small serving bowls. Top with berries.
Eggs - Whisk eggs with salt and pepper.

Heat a nonstick pan with oil over medium heat. Add sausage patties to heated oil and sear on both sides until cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes total. Set aside, covered to keep warm.
To heated pan add butter and swirl in the pan until melted. Pour eggs over melted butter. Scramble, stirring gently with a spatula, until cooked to your liking, 4 to 6 minutes.
Serve scrambled eggs with sausage patties and some hot sauce if you’d like. Enjoy parfait on the side.
