An Easter Tradition: Sausage Gravy

Tomorrow is Easter and the tradition at our church is that the elders make an Easter breakfast before the service. Since he’s an elder, John is out in the kitchen making up one of his favorite foods; Sausage Gravy.

We don’t have this very often since we’re both trying to lose weight but it sure is a nice treat once in a while.

Part of the beauty of this recipe is that you can make it as thin or as thick as you like. I find that everybody likes it a little different so you can make it your way.
