The Christmas morning treat

Christmas morning brings a special treat in our house - Dad's biscuits and gravy. After cooking a ton of breakfast sausage he uses the grease and some ground up sausage to make his own delicious gravy. His home made biscuits are a real treat - especially with his mouth watering gravy heaped on top.
Forget the presents - just let me taste Dad's biscuits and gravy and I'm getting an early glimpse of Heaven on Christmas morning!
So, when you find yourself with forty-five minutes or so to prepare a really satisfying breakfast, dig out your best stainless steel cookware and mix up your favorite sausage gravy. You can use this delicious topping on top of your best biscuits or even on toast. I love it on hash browns - or fried potato wedges.
Why not cheat on your diet for one day ? Enjoy and celebrate the birth of Jesus with your family and loved ones and eat your favorite treats. Leave your worries behind at this special time of year. Self Discipline is good and it can take a day off every now and then - like Christmas morning! Eating Healthy doesn't mean we can't enjoy old family traditions.
