1 lb of ground breakfast sausage |
Brown and crumble the sausage in a skillet over medium heat. |
Healthier alternative: 1 lb of lean ground turkey 3 Tbsp canola oil ½ tsp cayenne pepper ½ tsp sage ¼ tsp oregano A grating of black pepper
|
Pour the oil in the skillet and heat. Crumble in the turkey and sprinkle the spices. Brown and crumble the turkey in a skillet over medium heat. |
Approx. ¼ cup flour Approx. 1 cup milk Cayenne pepper Salt and pepper |
Turn up the heat to med-high. Sprinkle the flour over the sausage and mix well to absorb the oil. Use a little less flour for the turkey option. Cook for about 1 minute. Add ½ cup milk, stir, cook until for a minute or so until thick and add ¼ cup additional milk, cook and stir. Keep adding milk a bit at a time and continue stirring until the gravy is the desired consistency and does not continue to thicken.If you like it spicy, add a bit more cayenne pepper (careful!). Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with biscuits. |
