Good old fashioned comfort food. Breakfast sausage in a thick creamy gravy. I’ve tried this with turkey sausage, too, it’s good but you can’t beat that pork flavor. Topped with green onions just sharpens everything right up. Enjoy!

Sausage Gravy

20200219 sausage gravy.jpg

1lb          breakfast sausage

2T           fat (butter or oil)

2T           flour

2c            almond milk

1t            salt

1 1/2t    pepper

3              green onions

In a large skillet, fry 1 pound of breakfast sausage, 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Until cooked through.

Add 2T butter (or fat of your choice) stirring until melted.

Add 2T flour, 1t salt, and 1 1/2t pepper, mix well. Cook for 2-3 minutes.

Slowly add 2c almond milk unflavored (or cow, soy, oat, whichever you like), whisking as you go to incorporate all.

Simmer for 5-8 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens.

Serve over biscuits or toast, sprinkle with a few diced green onions.

As pictured: served over biscuits.

Please note if you choose to use turkey sausage there is more fat, which you can use instead of the butter, just drain off excess over 2T.
