You can enter the income on a 1041 and check the "Grantor type trust" box (the income is then reported on a grantor information statement which, in turn, is reported on your individual income tax return (1040).

 

There are various filing options which you might want to consider.

@jaredc2 If you are filing a 1041 for a grantor trust, you will not issue a K-1 (and if you are using TurboTax Business, a K-1 will not be generated). Rather, you will receive a grantor information statement.
