Sausage Gravy

Here is the link to the original recipe:
http://www.cooks.com/rec/view/0,175,133181-245192,00.html?pg=2&opt=old


After reading the comments on it, I changed it up a little. Here are the changes I made-

-I used 1 lb of sausage instead of 3/4 lb (Jimmy Dean Original)
-I added 2 tbsp butter and 1 tbsp oil to the sausage after it was cooked because there wasn't much grease
-I used 6 tbsp flour
-I added salt & pepper to taste (not sure how much)

I didn't make my own biscuits; Grands Southern Style in a can works just fine for me ;)
Oh, and I cooked the sausage on medium, and turned it up to med-high after I added the milk, until it was boiling. Then I turned it down to med-low to simmer until thick. Make sure to stir frequently!

Ratatouille

I served it over penne pasta. Also, my hubby isn't too big on veggies, so I added some Italian sausage to it for him.

1 med. eggplant, peeled and chopped into 1" chunks
2 zucchini, quartered and chopped
1 (28 oz) can diced tomatoes
1/2-3/4 cup chicken broth
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2-3 links Italian sausage, casings removed
2 sprigs rosemary stripped and leaves chopped (all the recipes I found actually called for thyme, but I didn't have any, so use whatever you like better)
2-3 tbsp fresh chopped basil
salt & pepper
olive oil

Heat a couple tbsp of olive oil in a large, deep skillet over med-high. Brown the sausage, then add the onions and garlic. Cook until softened. Add the eggplant and 1/4 cup of chicken broth. Cover and cook until the eggplant begins to soften. Add the zucchini and 1/4 cup more chicken broth. Cover and cook until zucchini begins to soften. Add the tomatoes and rosemary. Salt and pepper to taste. Simmer until everything is cooked through, adding a little more chicken broth if necessary. Stir in the chopped basil a minute or two before serving.
