It's So Yummy (and Easy) Gravy!

When I switched to a plant-based diet, I thought it was the end of gravy, and I’m not going to lie, that made me really sad. But it turns out, not only can you still make tasty gravy, it’s super-easy! Not to mention, it’s much lower in fat so sometimes (shhhhhh), I just eat this with a spoon. I won’t tell if you want to do the same also!

I love gravy--I mean, who doesn't love gravy?? Really, it should be a food group. And the great thing about gravy...it doesn't have to include any meat products or fat--making it even better! I have been known to eat this by the spoonfuls...by itself. Don't judge...at least until you've tried it.

Ingredients

½ cup nutritional yeast
¼ cup whole wheat flour
2 teaspoons rubbed sage
2 teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup veggie broth or stock
2 cups plant-based milk
3 tablespoons tamari (soy sauce)

Instructions

In a medium bowl, combine nutritional yeast, flour and herbs together. Whisk veggie broth, milk and tamari into the flour mixture. Pour mixture into a frying pan, bring to a boil and continue to cook until thick and gravy-like.
Add salt and pepper to taste--and that's it's! Super yummy and easy!

Nutritional yeast can be found at many high-end grocery stores, but I buy it on-line. My favorite is Bob’s Red Mill, which I buy on Amazon.
