Tip

Tomato Sausage Gravy

In Milan, Tennessee, it’s a family tradition for Anne C. to make tomato gravy with her sausage. “Pour tomato juice instead of milk or water into the sausage drippings and thicken with flour,” she says. “It’s delicious.”

Homemade gravy is delicious served with roasted meat or poultry.Related Recipes:Roasted Wild Turkey…
