Sausage Gravy with Biscuits

This is yummy as a breakfast or a dinner. Nutritionally it's not great, but you can easily make it four servings. It calls for 2 biscuits but it makes enough gravy that you can actually use 4. Just add a salad or other veggie and it'll up the nutritional content of your meal.

2 individually frozen biscuits
1/4 lb reduced-fat bulk pork sausage
3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
1/4 tsp salt, optional
1/4 tsp Italian Seasoning
1/4 tsp rubbed sage
1/8 tsp garlic powder
1/8 tsp pepper
1 1/2 c fat-free milk
Bake biscuits according to package directions. Meanwhile, crumble sausage into a skillet. Cook over medium heat until no longer pink; drain. Stir in flour and seasonings until blended. Gradually add milk. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 mins or until thickened. Split biscuits in half; serve with sausage gravy.
Yields: 2 (or more) servings
