Easy Gravy for Biscuits & Gravy

Ingredients:
biscuits - out of a can, Bisquick, or your favorite recipe
1 pound ground breakfast sausage
1/4 cup flour
2 1/2 cups milk
salt and pepper to taste 

Directions: 
Bake biscuits 

Brown sausage in large skillet over medium heat 5-6 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring frequently.

Sprinkle flour over the top of the sausage.  Gradually add milk; cook until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Season to taste with salt and pepper.

NOTES:
* Make it easy - do Grand's biscuits out of the can. Quick and easy.
* Do not drain the grease from the sausage that is where ALL the flavor and of course fat is at so don't get rid of it.
* I added just milk - not whole or 2%, because I have used both whole and 2% and of course whole tastes better, but 2% still works and tastes good too. I have never used skim or 1%. 

* If it is too thick, then add more milk.  If it is too thin, add more flour.
