Sausage Gravy (Biscuits and Gravy)

Which one of you doesn't miss this much loved meal? Biscuits and Gravy was a treat for us anytime we visited our grandparents. My Nana and Papa would both be in the kitchen making this breakfast when I was little atleast once when we were up to visit them. I can still hear my grandfathers laugh as he picks on anyone in the kitchen or within ear shot. The smell of freshly baked biscuits and the wrinkled up nose at the idea of pouring oil into our foods. It looked disgusting when they did this but it always tasted soooooooooooo very good! Definitely a fond memory!

So Who's ready to know how to make this low carb?
I know after 4 years of being diabetic I was ready to have this again- sans the guilt!

Just a word of caution- ALL of these measurements are Approximate. Any 'strange' ingredient you can click on and the link will navigate to a place you can get it or at least learn what it is. 

Ingredients:

• 1 lb Jimmy Deans Breakfast sausage (in the tubes)
• 2 T Coconut oil
• 1/2 C. Carbquik
• 1/2 C. Coconut Milk**
• 1/2 C. Almond Milk**
• 1/2 C. Heavy Whipping Cream**
• Salt and Pepper to taste

For the Biscuits, please see the post for Baking Powder Biscuits here. 

1. Brown Gravy. Do not drain the grease. 
2. Add coconut oil and mix till melted.
3. Add Carbquik until oil is soaked up. 
4. Add 'Milk' gradually until you get the gravy consistency you desire. 
5. After adding the milk, keep stiring as it will thicken after a minute or so. Add additional milk if you feel it is too thick. 
6. Salt and Pepper and serve! 

** The Coconut Milk, Almond Milk and HWC can be replaced by any milk or milk replacement you would like to use. The recipe indicates what I used. I had a mix of coconut/almond milk in a container. I am not fond of the nutty taste of almond milk that much and wanted to make sure that the almond milk wouldn't mess up the flavor of the gravy. This is why I used HWC as well.

Did you try this? What did you think? Did you make any adjustments?
