Calories: 1twelfth
Ingredients
- 1 1-pound package ground breakfast pork sausage
- 2 2.5-ounce packages peppered gravy mixes (or country gravy mixes)
- 4 cups water
- 1 8-ounce package preshredded Colby Jack cheese or mild Cheddar cheese, divided (optional)
- 1 package of 12 frozen biscuits (about 25 ounces, not thawed)
- 2 tablespoons butter, melted
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F degrees.
- Cook sausage in a 12 inch skillet over medium heat, stirring often, until sausage has crumbled and is lightly browned. Drain sausage on paper towels or in a small metal strainer. Add the sausage back to the skillet.
- To the same skillet, stir in the gravy mixes. Gradually, add the water while stirring. Turn the heat on medium and cook, stirring constantly until the sausage gravy is thickened. If using cheese, stir in all but ½ cup of the cheese now and stir just until cheese is melted.
- Pour the sausage gravy into a 13x9-inch baking dish coated with vegetable or olive oil cooking spray. Arrange the biscuits on top.
- Brush the frozen biscuits with melted butter. Sprinkle with remaining ½ cup cheese. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes or until the biscuits are golden brown and the sausage gravy is bubbly.
Notes
Tip: Save a dish to wash and melt the butter in the same measuring cup used to measure water.
Variations: ½ cup onion can be cooked with the sausage.
