Grandma's own sausage gravy recipe! Works with bacon, too. Serve hot over freshly baked biscuits.
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork sausage
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 cups milk
Instructions
-
1
Heat a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir sausage in the hot skillet until crumbly and browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove sausage to a paper towel-lined plate to drain; set aside.

2
Pour off most of the grease from the skillet, leaving 2 to 3 tablespoons. Stir flour into grease in the skillet over medium-low heat. Whisk vigorously until roux forms, scraping the bottom of the skillet. Reduce heat to low and let roux cook for at least 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Grandma always "burned" hers a little on purpose.

Stream milk into roux, whisking constantly. After adding about 2 1/2 cups, increase heat to medium and continue cooking, whisking constantly. Bring gravy to a boil and cook to desired thickness. Add some of the sausage to gravy if desired.

Killer Pumpkin Pie
My two boys have multiple food allergies, and I wanted to try pumpkin pie. They call this recipe "Killer Pumpkin Pie" because they say it tastes "killer." It's light and spicy and dairy- and soy-free. It's fast and easy, with a pressed crust that mixes in the pan.
Oatmeal Energy Balls
I am a vegetarian and love to eat these oatmeal energy balls before I go to the gym. Sometimes I like to add extra whole peanuts to the recipe. Substitute ¼ cup dark chocolate chips for the raisins if desired. If you want to eat them on the go, wrap them in waxed paper and tie with a bread tie. Enjoy!
