Good evening myLot fam! It's everybody's favorite time of day! Dinner time. Tonight is a simple but delicious homemade meal. I am making homemade gravy with homemade biscuits. I make biscuits about once a month or so and freeze about 2 dozen so that I have them for later meals throughout the month. So for dinner tonight I didn't spend any money on the biscuits, since they were made last month and frozen. The gravy is simple, Jimmy Dean sausage, milk, flour, salt and pepper. I got three pounds of Jimmy Dean sausage at snack guy last week for $8.00, and had milk and flour and salt and pepper on hand. I used probably a pound of sausage so that's about $2.66 in sausage, about $0.50 of milk, maybe $0.50 with flour and seasonings. So $.3.66 for a meal, or $1.22 per person! Not too bad for a homemade meal that will fill everyone up and make everyone happy.

I think that is a great idea. Never thought about making and freezing biscuits.

I think I am going to make hamburger helper tonight. But I just ordered Domino's for a late lunch, so we might not even mess with cooking tonight and just snack.
