Biscuits and Gravy

Biscuits and Gravy is probably my favorite breakfast food! 
But, it has to be made right.
I've tried a lot of different kinds of biscuits and gravy and only found a handful of places who make them "right". 
By "right" I mean creamy gravy with sausage (which in most other cases I don't really like sausage) and soft fluffy biscuits. 
Finally! One day I saw a friend of mine make them this way and she was kind enough to share her incredibly easy and delicious recipe with me. 
I love this recipe and make it fairly often, so I figured I'd share it with all of you as well. 

Ingredients:
Canned Biscuits
Ground Sausage- about 1lb
flour
Evaporated Milk-1 Can
NOTE: Evaporated and condensed milk are not the same!!! I have made this mistake and it completely ruins it. Yes, I have some blonde moments. Trust me, you want to learn from this mistake of mine and not have to learn for yourself.  

Directions:
Get biscuits going in the oven (follow directions on can).
Gravy:
Brown sausage in a large skillet.
Sprinkle in just enough flour to lightly coat the sausage (about 3 or so large tablespoons).
Continue to cook until it is no longer white.
Pour in EVAPORATED milk.
Simmer until it begins to thicken, stirring often.
Take off burner.
It will thicken more as it cools.
 If you would like it less thick (I normally do this), add milk (add small amounts at a time, a little goes a long way). 

Pour gravy over biscuits and enjoy!


I hope you love this recipe as much as I do!
