Merm's Biscuits and Sausage Gravy
"This is a slightly modified version of my beloved Mom's (her grandkids called her Merm) recipe. My family loves this stuff and they insist I make it for breakfast every holiday and sometime for dinner. I serve it by putting the buttered biscuits on a big plate, smothering them with the gravy and then topping them with either scrambled or over-easy eggs, depending on the preference of the person eating them. This is pure comfort food for my family!"

I love biscuits and gravy, and this hit the spot for dinner on a cool Autumn night. Made for PAC Fall 2007. Thanks SoozieQ!

I grew up in Tucson but moved to Colorado in 1989 and live in a household with my husband, Dad, daughter and 3-year old twin granddaughters. Our 8-year old grandson spends 2 nights a week with us. All of that adds up to often difficult menu ideas to met everyone's tastes.
Zaar is very addicting and I love trying the recipes I find here. I like to find recipes of people that I see are still active on Zaar and love it when I hear back from the Chef after I review the recipe. Everytime someone reviews one of my recipes, I like to find one of theirs to make and review as quickly as possible. It's a way for me to find great chefs I don't know yet too!
My husband has high blood sugar so we try to watch our carbs, but it is not easy because we love them so much!
I was diagnosed with brain tumors in 2005 and so far have had 5 surgeries that have left my eyelid droopy. I hope to have a surgery that will correct that soon!! There is still one tumor they have not removed but my wonderful doctor James Garrity at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN says they will leave it alone until or if it ever causes problems!
