Ahoy mateys! This is the first in which I hope to be a series of food posts for us poor Pirates of STEEM. Since the price of our cryptocurrency booty is so low, many of us must tighten our belts.

My sister frequents food banks and many times will bring me those things that others do not care to keep. The latest delivery was two bags of precooked sausage links and a large box of cream cheese restaurant packets. Having lived in the Southern part of the United States for many years, I have a great fondness for Sausage Gravy. This is my take on this gastronomic delight!
Cream Cheese Sausage Gravy
The first thing we must do is gather together all our ingredients. I am not very good at using measurements, so I pretty much eyeball and guess at everything!
Ingredients
- Sausage (could be linked, could be whatever you have)
- Oil (lard or butter if we are Southern Culinary Purists)
- Cream Cheese
- Water/Milk
- Flour
- Pepper (lots and lots of pepper)
Steps
- Preheat skillet on medium low heat (when drops of water dance in the pan it is ready)
- Add a bit of oil/lard/butter to the pan (I guess about two (2) teaspoons should do)
- Add the sausage to the pan and cook thoroughly (don't want to get Trichinosis)
- Once the sausage is cooked through, add the cream cheese and a bit of water/milk
- Lower the heat and allow the cream cheese to combine with the sausage, stirring constantly
- Add pepper while the sausage and cream cheese are combining
- Add small amounts of flour if the gravy is too thin stirring continuously
- After stirring for a good 10 minutes or so, we should be done! (Don't rush the process, good things come to those that wait!)
I want to thank @thekittygirl, @crazybgadventure, and @lizelle as they were my inspirations in the production of this post.

Wow so glad to have inspired you @sgt-dan, this would have been a great entry for @steemkitchen's Cheap & Cheerful contest ;)
Keep on steeming what you're cooking :)
Thank you very much. I am a bit on the frugal side. I was always taught as a child to never waste food. Mother would always say,
I would respond with, Well, let's ship it over to them. Of course I would receive a good smack across the mouth. Ahhh, memories...
So glad you posted this! Thanks! It sounds awesome and I am anxious to try it! Just need to remember to get cream cheese, because that isn't something I always have on hand.And definitely butter instead of lard or oil for me! 😊
Good thing you done here sarge keep that up for sure.
Thank you!

but trust and believe - i am SOOOOOOOOOO excited to try it mmmmm with some gluten free biscuits for sure! :)
love to you my dear Dan :)

Fasting? Not one of my favorite past times. I am sure you will be happy to start eating solid foods again although I would not go with this recipe first off as it is very heavy. Thank you love you back dear. Have a great week!
