Ingredients




Biscuits

1 1/2 cups Bisquick Mix, plus extra for dusting
 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon sage, minced
Gravy

1/4 cup flour (or Bisquick, or half flour/half bisquick)
2 cups half and half (or milk)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 pound pork sausage (or turkey, beef, etc.)

Preparation

1 Mix Bisquick, milk and sage until soft dough forms. 2 Turn onto surface generously sprinkled with Bisquick. Knead 10 times.  (To make drop biscuits, do not knead dough. Just drop by the spoonful.) 3 Roll out to 1/2-inch thick and cut with a 2 1/2-inch cutter (or the top of a glass cup). Place on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 450 degrees for 8 to 10 minutes or until golden brown. 4 As biscuits bake, cook the sausage in a large frying pan on medium heat.  (If you’re using links, remove from casing and crumble or slice to make it easier.)  Remove meat and set aside when completely cooked. 5 Immediately add half of the flour into the grease, without turning off the heat, and whisk until a brown paste forms.  Add remaining flour and continue whisking well. 6 Slowly mix in half and half (or milk) and whisk until thickens, about 5 minutes.  Add salt and pepper, followed by cooked sausage meat.  Turn heat to low, and allow to continue cooking another couple of minutes. 7 To serve, cut biscuits in half and, if desired, top with scrambled eggs and your favorite shredded cheese.  Generously pour sausage gravy on top and garnish with fresh sage.
